Apple Pie Smoothie Recipe

Healthy Apple Pie Smoothie That Tastes Like Dessert

Apple pie for breakfast? Yes, please! This smoothie has all the warm, cinnamon-y flavor of a classic apple pie, minus the crust and sugar. Apples are packed with fiber and vitamin C, and a little maple syrup and cinnamon make every sip taste like fall. If you're an apple lover like me, you'll also love my Healthy Apple Bread!

Creamy Greek yogurt boosts the protein, and rolled oats add extra fiber to keep you full all morning. Each serving has about 13 grams of protein and 7 grams of fiber, so it's a breakfast that actually holds you over. Pair it with my Blueberry Muffin Protein Overnight Oats for an easy make-ahead breakfast week.

It's also the perfect way to use up all those apples from your fall orchard trip. Save a few for my Healthy Apple Cobbler, too!

Ingredients Needed To Make This Apple Pie Smoothie

Here's a little bit about everything that goes into this cozy fall smoothie!

Apples: Use 2 Honeycrisp or Granny Smith apples, diced and frozen. Skip Red Delicious, which makes the smoothie too sweet. No need to peel them!
Greek yogurt: Plain or vanilla Greek yogurt adds creaminess and protein.
Almond milk: Just enough to help it blend. Use unsweetened if you don't want it too sweet. Oat milk works too!
Rolled oats: These add fiber and make the smoothie extra filling.
Maple syrup or honey: A tablespoon of natural sweetener.
Cinnamon: The key to that apple pie flavor! Apple pie spice works too.

How to Make an Apple Pie Smoothie

This smoothie couldn't be easier, even if you've never made one before! All you need is a high-speed blender and two glasses.

The trick is to layer your blender. Add the heavier ingredients like the frozen apples first and the lighter liquids and spices on top, so everything blends perfectly smooth.

Step 1: Add the frozen diced apples, Greek yogurt, almond milk, rolled oats, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla to a high-speed blender, in that order. If your apples aren't frozen, add 4–5 ice cubes.

Step 2: Blend until totally smooth, adding a splash more almond milk if needed.

Step 3: Pour into two glasses and top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon if you like!

Step 4: Serve!

Erin's Expert Tips

Choose the right apple. Honeycrisp or Granny Smith keeps it from tasting too sugary.
Freeze your apples ahead of time. Frozen apples make the smoothie thick and creamy without watering it down with ice.
Layer your blender correctly. Heavy, solid ingredients go in first, and liquids and spices on top for the smoothest blend.
Prep apple cubes. Purée apples with a splash of water and freeze them in an ice cube tray for super quick smoothies.
Use a high-speed blender. It makes the creamiest texture, especially with oats and frozen apples.

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most common questions I get about this apple pie smoothie!

Nope! Leave the skin on. It blends right in and adds extra fiber.

Yes! Frozen apples are the best choice. They make the smoothie thick and creamy, so you don't need to add ice.

It's best fresh, but you can prep frozen apple cubes ahead of time so it comes together in minutes.

Yes! Just add a little more almond milk. It won't be quite as thick or high in protein, but it's still delicious.

Yes, as long as you use certified gluten-free rolled oats.

Any milk works! Almond milk is my go-to, but oat milk, dairy milk, and vanilla almond milk are all great options.

Storing leftovers

This smoothie tastes best fresh, right after you make it. If you have leftovers, store them in a jar with a lid in the fridge for up to 1 day. Give it a good shake before drinking, because it may separate as it sits.
