This delicious and easy Apple Pie Smoothie tastes like apple pie, but it’s ready in only 5 minutes. With plenty of protein from Greek yogurt, this smoothie not only tastes like apple pie in a glass, but it’s also filling and healthy. You can, however, indulge a little and top it with some whipped cream and/or caramel sauce.

Love apples? Enjoy the best ever classic delicious Apple Pie Recipe, Apple Pie Macarons, Cinnamon Baked Apples, and Baked Apple Cider Donuts, just to name a couple of our best recipes. Or if you would like another smoothie to try check out our Better Than McDonald’s Mango Pineapple Smoothie.

This Apple Pie Smoothie recipe is fantastic because it is easy to make. A relatively healthy apple pie smoothie that is also yummy. Although Amber, our daughter, kind of got off the kick of making smoothies like she was in the summer. I reminded her, and she helped me whip up this delight!!! I was thinking of apples, but wanted to add in the flavors of apple pie. This turned out to be a very delicious smoothie. I like to describe it as something that tastes so decadent but yet is so good for you.

Smoothies are so quick and easy to put together. If you are in a rush in the morning, starting off with a delicious smoothie sounds fantastic. It is quick as long as you are organized. I always make sure that I have all the ingredients in my refrigerator and pantry so I can whip one up in no time! You know what they say an “apple a day….”

WHAT IS IN AN APPLE PIE SMOOTHIE?

Ingredients for Apple Pie Smoothie

Simple ingredients, most you may have on hand already. This naturally sweetened, gluten-free healthy smoothie awaits you for breakfast. Add in protein powder if you want to up the protein in your morning. Then you can call it an apple pie protein smoothie, yum!

INGREDIENTS

  • Apples, cored and chopped
  • Unsweetened milk of choice e.g. opt for Almond milk if you are on a plant based diet
  • Vanilla Greek yogurt, or plain
  • Apple pie spice or cinnamon
  • Maple syrup or honey to taste, optional to sweeten
  • Ice cubes

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:

  • Whipped cream
  • Apple slices
  • Cinnamon sticks
  • Ground cinnamon

HOW TO MAKE AN APPLE PIE SMOOTHIE?

Let’s get started, and you can see how easy this is for your breakfast!

Take the chopped apples and add unsweetened milk, yogurt, ice cube, and apple pie spice. Blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth. Add more ice if you want a thicker smoothie.

Taste and add more maple syrup or honey if you want your smoothie to be sweeter.

Pour in 2 glasses and garnish with the optional toppings. You can add whipped cream, cinnamon sticks, or some apple slices alongside ground cinnamon. Enjoy! 

NOTES

Recipe Notes and Variations:

You can use your favorite variety of apples for this recipe. I recommend a sweeter variety for this smoothie like Gala or Honeycrisp. Honeycrisp are my favorites.

We use Greek yogurt in this recipe because it’s thicker and higher in protein, making this smoothie extra creamy and filling. More of the smoothie form. You can use vanilla Greek yogurt or plain or even your favorite non-dairy yogurt; however, the smoothie won’t be as creamy.

To sweeten it up, you can use honey, maple syrup, agave syrup, etc. If using vanilla yogurt, you might not even need to sweeten it at all. Just taste and adjust the sweetness accordingly.

HOW TO MAKE THIS SMOOTHIE THICKER?

There are a few ways to make this smoothie thicker and creamier:

1. Add more ice for a thicker smoothie; however, this will lead to a more watery slushy-like smoothie.

2. Freeze your apple pieces before adding them to the smoothie. This will make your smoothie thick and cold without watering it down like the ice cubes will do.

3. Add 2-3 tablespoons of rolled oats to the smoothie. This will result in a creamier and more filling smoothie that can even replace your breakfast or snack. We did this trick in our Blueberry Muffin Smoothie.

    Absolutely amazing. I added flax seeds and protein powder to make it a complete meal and 2 tsp Lakanto erythritol monkfruit sweetener and it was literally the best Fall breakfast ever. Thank you for sharing! <3

    Well, you’ve done it. You’ve officially gotten me onto the smoothie train. I couldn’t resist all of my favourite pie flavours in one glass… didn’t miss the crust one bit!

    I hate smoothies especially ones that are green but I can get behind this one. Made it with almond milk and it was SO good, tasted like dessert.

    We are having intense winter weather in the north east so I made it for my husband as a little at home happy hour with a shot of spiced run 🙂

    What a great idea, Tara! I made a little smoothie this morning with 2 very ripe persimmons along with my yogurt and some milk. I love that you left the peel on!! Definitely trying this 🙂

    I had to check out the recipe when I saw this photo on FB… sooooo yummy looking! I like that you left the peel on, too — that’s the best part of the apple!
