Ingredients
  

1 medium apple, cored and chopped (suggesting Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for a tart flavor)

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your preferred milk alternative)

1 frozen banana, peeled and sliced

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (plus extra for garnish)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (sweetness can be adjusted to your taste)

1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt for a vegan option)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional for added nutrition)

Ice cubes (to adjust consistency as needed)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by rinsing the apple thoroughly under cold water. Once clean, remove the core and chop it into small chunks. Peel the frozen banana and cut it into slices for easy blending.

    Blend the Smoothie: In your blender, add the chopped apple, frozen banana slices, unsweetened almond milk, ground cinnamon, honey (or maple syrup), Greek yogurt, and chia seeds (if you choose to include them).

      Adjust Consistency: Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth, creamy texture. If the smoothie appears too thick, gradually add a splash more almond milk and blend again. For an extra chilled smoothie, incorporate a few ice cubes and blend until you achieve your desired consistency.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste your smoothie and feel free to adjust the sweetness or cinnamon level based on your personal preference.

          Serve with Flair: Pour the smoothie into serving glasses. For an elegant touch, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon on top as a garnish. You can also add a slice of apple on the rim of each glass for a decorative flair.

            Enjoy: Serve the smoothie immediately with a straw or spoon and savor the delightful flavors of your Apple Cinnamon Bliss Smoothie!
