Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make this delicious smoothie:
Oat: if you’re on a gluten free diet you need to buy gluten free oats as manufacturing can cause cross contamination. Hence if the product does not specify gluten free, the manufacturer cannot guarantee that your oat is gluten free.
Banana: for sweetness best to use ripe banana. You can use frozen banana too.
Apple: any apple is fine, the most popular ones are Granny Smith, Gala and Golden apples.
Milk: any milk is fine here, for example rice, almond or oat milk.
Cinnamon: use ground cinnamon, or you can add mixed spice instead.
Mixed spice: in the US it’s called pumpkin pie spice. Both are a mixture of spices, including cinnamon, ginger, cloves and nutmeg. A heavenly scent!
Walnuts: I used chopped walnuts for toppings, they provide delicious flavour!
OPTIONAL MIX-INS
These are just a few ideas you can add to this smoothie but I wouldn’t change too many things, as this smoothie is fine as it is! 😊
