Cinnamon Apple Breakfast Smoothie

Ingredients

 2 cups organic apple (cored and cubed, skin on)
 2 tbsp hemp seeds (hulled)
 1 cup organic spinach
 2 tbsp organic peanut butter (or other nut or seed butter of choice)
 1 cup plant-based milk (unsweetened)
 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
 1 handful ice, +1 handful as needed

Directions

1

Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.

2

Taste for additional ingredients of your choice (more apple for natural sweetness, more nut or seed butter for a nuttier flavor, or more cinnamon for more spice!).

Chef's Notes

Substitutions
For the apple, use any variety you like. Note that Granny Smith apples will provide more tartness than others.

Substitute almond butter, cashew butter, or pecan butter for peanut butter.

Nut-free
Use sunflower seed butter or tahini in place of peanut butter.

Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Add more milk or water as needed to reach desired consistency.
