Fat-free Apple Cinnamon Smoothie Recipe

By Jolinda Hackett, About.com

I find an apple in my smoothie is a great way to get some fiber in the mornings! This easy vegetarian and vegan fat-free breakfast smoothie is great because you don't have to spend time chopping any fruit - just blend away! A great fat-free breakfast or summer smoothie recipe for hot days. Fat-free apple smoothie recipe courtesy US Apple Association.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups applesauce
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 2 tbsp honey (omit if vegan)
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Preparation:

For a healthier fat-free smoothie, I recommend using a natural applesauce that doesn't contain any added sugar. Read the label to make sure.

Place all ingredients in a blender, and blend until smooth. Serve immediately, or keep chilled until serving time. Garnish with additional cinnamon, if desired.

Makes 2 apple smoothies.
