Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 Apple (medium, preferably sweet variety like Fuji or Gala)
- 1 cup Plain yogurt (unsweetened)
- 1 cup Milk (or a non-dairy alternative like almond milk)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (or maple syrup)
- 0.25 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional, for flavor)

Instructions
Wash and core the apple. Peel the skin if desired (optional, for a smoother texture). Cut the apple into small chunks.
In a blender, combine the apple chunks, plain yogurt, milk, honey, and cinnamon (if using).
Add the ice cubes to the blender.
Blend the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes depending on your blender.

Pour the apple yogurt shake into glasses and serve immediately. Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a thin apple slice for garnish if you like.
