Directions
- 1. Rinse and dry all fresh produce; skip spinach if it’s already washed.
- 2. Core and quarter the apples, remove seeds and stems, then peel the banana and add both to the blender.
- 3. Clean, dry, peel, and slice the ginger; if your blender is very strong, you can add the piece whole.
- 4. Halve and pit the avocado, scoop the flesh into the blender with a spoon.
- 5. Add the spinach, almond milk, maple syrup, and four ice cubes to the blender.
- 6. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined, about a few minutes.
- 7. Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve right away.
Two tips
- Prep tip: wash and dry produce in advance and refrigerate until blending, to speed up busy mornings.
- Serving tip: if you prefer a thinner texture, whisk in a splash more almond milk or use a frozen banana for extra chill.
