It's coming to the end of apricot season so I wanted to share this creamy smoothie with you. It's super fruity but creamy too. A great breakfast smoothie or afternoon treat.
A fresh and creamy vanilla and apricot smoothie that's great for breakfast or an afternoon treat. Flax seeds are added for a nutritional boost.
Apricots are:
- Only 50 calories per 100g.
- High in Vitamin A and Carotene
- Good source of Vitamin C
- Good sources of potassium, iron, calcium and manganese.
- Best when stored in the fridge and eaten as soon as possible.
- DELICIOUS!!!
Ingredients
- 6 large ripe apricots
- 200ml milk (or almond milk)
- 100ml fresh orange juice
- 100g Greek yoghurt (or plain soy yoghurt)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp flax seeds (optional)
- a handful of ice cubes
Instructions
1. Rinse the apricots, cut them in half and remove the stones.
2. Add all the ingredients to a blender and whizz until smooth. If you don't have a power blender skip the flax seeds or grind them to powder before adding. Also don't add the ice cubes if you have a standard blender, it can burn out the motor.
3. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more milk or orange juice.4. Enjoy!
