Of course, when you have so many apples on hands and so much applesauce, you start using it everywhere and on everything. But strangely enough, I haven’t even made an apple dessert yet. Nope. Instead, I’ve used TONS of that home made applesauce making… SMOOTHIES!!!
Seriously. I am really lovin on apple smoothies lately.
There are two flavors that I came up with and particularly love. One of them is a “Drinkable Apple Crumble”. This is the one pictured below.
My second favorite is a Drinkable Apple Cheesecake. Yeah, it figures, you know me and cheesecake!
But would you believe me if I told you that, despite having had it AT LEAST a dozen times over the past 3 weeks, so far, I still haven’t gotten around to snapping a single picture of it?
Now, of course, both flavors are pretty similar, since they both call for applesauce as a base, but they have slight variations that sometimes will make me crave one over the other.
So for now, I will share this first recipe with you, and hopefully I’ll get to snap the other before that applesauce is all gone…
And believe me, it’s going fast!!!

Kind AND clever! I like!
PLEASE share your recipe for drinkable apple cheesecake… It sounds delicious! Of course the drinkable apple crumble does too, I can’t wait to try it!
That sounds intriguing…
I also like the goblets you’ve used in the shoot. Might try to make something like that in my pottery class. Thanks for the double inspiration!
Thanks, Vera! The goblets were actually given to me by my favorite aunt in the whole wide world. I was so excited when I got them and couldn’t wait to use them. When I made that smoothie, I just thought it was the perfect match! Wishing you much success in replicating them out of pottery!
I love smoothies!! And well, how good does a cheesecake smoothie sound? You just got to give us the recipe. With or without the photos… Lol. Although this crumble smoothie looks pretty awesome too!
Posting a recipe without a photo??? No way, that would be a crime!
Especially if it’s the recipe to something as heavenly as this apple cheesecake smoothie. I promise to shoot it this week-end and post sometime next week, how’s that? 
Oh that smoothie looks heavenly. Can I remove the egg whites? I am not very good with raw eggs.
Sure you can. Smoothies are very forgiving you know. Just add a little more milk if you want, if not, the smoothie will only end up being a little thicker, which is never a bad thing… at least not for me!
That looks amazing. I’ve seen apple smoothies before but I wasn’t quite convinced, but yours really sounds delicious. I’m going to give this a try once I make another batch of applesauce
Your pictures make me drool.
Love your goblets/cups/mugs – rustic and perfect for your applesauce smoothie…which looks FAB by the way! Gulp (and big smile)…can I please have one? : ) beautiful AS ALWAYS!
Thanks for this clever idea! Apple is definitely accessible and is in abundant here in sunny Singapore. Can’t wait to experiment with your recipes…
This sounds amaaaaazing. Perfect for the kids
This was delish! I was sort of running around all hectic and forgot the oats though, which I think would have made it even better. I did manage to add a tablespoon of almond butter though – HIGHLY recommended!
Ooooh, I love the idea of almond butter in there. Uh oh, I realise I’m all out. Oops, guess I’ll have to make yet another batch of nut butter. What a shame!
I’ll definitely give that one a go! Thanks for the inspiration!
These look amazing – and I LOVE the cups!
This is an amazing idea! I am just surfing though your blog as you surely recognized and I love it! I love the creativity in your recipes!!!
Thank you so much Emil! I can see you’ve been visiting quite a bit indeed. Happy you’re enjoying your tour… Thanks for leaving a trace here and there, I truly appreciate that! You just made my day!
