Bring on the apples! They have arrived and they get me all pumped for fall.
In my opinion, autumn tastes like a Mcintosh apple.
My friend, Pam, recently came back from the mountains and shared the simplest and tastiest apple recipe.
She visited a farm stand and the farmer had blended apples in a blender and offered the healthy drink to his customers.
Just take some apples and whip them up in a blender. Yup! That’s it. Skins and all.
Core them and remove the seeds first. I add some water to thin it out a bit. Spices? Try some cinnamon and/or nutmeg. No sweetener needed.
While not all apples are created equal, I do believe they are all created delicious and nutritious. Experiment with all the many varieties of apples, tart or sweet. Organic is ideal.
I just discovered a variety that is becoming a new favorite, the Ginger Gold apple. Yum! It is green and soft and a just a bit tart, with a spicy flare.
What is your most favorite apple?
You may ask why not just eat an apple?
Very true. This is just a twist on apple goodness.
The apple smoothie makes a great afternoon pick me up or an early morning breakfast drink. How about a fun new drink for a fall party? It makes a perfect after school treat for kids and grandkids.
And I do believe in the old adage that an apple a day keeps the doctor away! Others agree. Click here!

I had NO idea you could make a smoothie by putting a WHOLE apple in a blender. Will definitely try. This could be life-changing (seriously-it’s so easy). My favorite apple goes back to my childhood-stayman-winesap. We got them at a farm stand in Baltimore County.
Love winesaps for applesauce and pies! Fun how flavors bring back memories. Make sure you cut up the apple before putting in blender and core and remove seeds.
