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!!!
