Apple Peanut Butter Smoothie (Hippie Snack!)

My own low calorie/high protein take on the Hearty Apple Smoothie with peanut butter from Smoothie King. Perfect for breakfast or a afternoon snack for kids :) I always keep frozen fruit on hand, so this comes together very quickly.

• Ready In: 6 mins
• Serves: 1
• Yields: 16 ounces

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup cottage cheese (I use fat free)
• 1⁄2 cup  apple juice (I use reduced sugar or calorie)
• 1  frozen jonathan apple, cored, peeled and coarsely chopped
• 1⁄2  frozen banana, sliced
• 1  tablespoon creamy peanut butter (I use all natural)
• 1  dash cinnamon

Directions

1. 1. Thaw banana and apple in microwave for 10-15 seconds (this makes the blending process easier).
