This apple pie smoothie blends apple, rolled oats, Medjool dates, cinnamon and nutmeg with oat milk until thick and tasting like pie filling, no banana needed. Heat it for a warm sip or pour it over ice, ready in 5 minutes.
Add the oats, dates and oat milk to a blender. Blend, starting on low and gradually increasing to high, until smooth.
Add the spinach, apple, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla, if using, and blend until smooth. If using collagen peptides, add them last and blend on low just to combine.
Pour into a glass and sprinkle with a little more cinnamon and nutmeg.
Notes
Blender Tip: Let the oats and dates sit in the oat milk for 10 minutes before blending so they blend smoothly.
Milk Swaps: Any non-dairy milk works in place of the oat milk.
Vegan Swap: Leave out the collagen or use a plant-based protein powder.
Storing: Best fresh, but it keeps in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. The oats thicken it as it sits, so shake and thin with a splash of oat milk before drinking.
