Notes
You can use your favorite variety of apples for this recipe; I recommend sweeter options like Gala or Honeycrisp for the best flavor in this smoothie. We use Greek yogurt in this recipe because it’s thicker and higher in protein, making the smoothie extra creamy and filling. You can opt for vanilla Greek yogurt, plain yogurt, or even your preferred non-dairy yogurt, although the smoothie may not be as creamy. To add sweetness, you can use honey, maple syrup, agave syrup, or similar options. If you’re using vanilla yogurt, you might not need any additional sweetener at all—just taste and adjust the sweetness to your preference.
