Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 large Winesap apple cored and chopped, skin left on for fiber
- 1 cup frozen dark sweet cherries pitted
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt plain or vanilla
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseeds for added Omega-3s
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon to enhance the apple's flavor
- 1 tsp honey optional, to taste
- 0.5 cup ice cubes optional, for a frostier texture
Notes
