Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 sweet apple
- ¼ cup rolled oats
- 1 cup oat milk
- 1 tablespoon blackstrap molasses
- 1 teaspoon Ceylon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablepoon walnuts
- 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
- Ice cubes optional
Instructions
- Take the blender and add all ingredients. Add in ice cubes, if using.
- Mix everything on high speed until you get an even smoothie texture.
- If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more liquid – milk or water. Blend again until everything is well combined.
- Taste the smoothie and add additional sweetener if you like. I recommend using date syrup, raw honey or maple syrup, or stevia. This is totally based on your preference.
- Transfer the smoothie into a tall glass.
- ADD TOPPINGS (optional): I used chopped walnuts, a dash of cinnamon, and hemp seeds. Be creative here and add toppings you like.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Makes 1 serving that serves 1 person as a full meal, or 2 servings as a snack/light meal.
As a measure, I used a US cup (240ml). Nutrition values are calculated without toppings.
Substitutions
- You can use rolled oats or quick oats.
- You can use any plant-based milk here except coconut milk. Coconut milk won't work well here. Cow's milk is fine.
- Substitute blackstrap molasses with 1-2 dates, date syrup, maple syrup, or honey.
- Substitute hemp seeds with ground flax seeds or chia seeds.
- Substitute walnuts with pecans.
