I love the taste of caramel apples. There’s some tartness to it, juiciness, crisp, accompanied by warm caramel and crunchy nuts. Just the thought of one makes my mouth water. I also happen to love a good smoothie. Shakes are good, but something about smoothies makes me feel like I’m eating healthy :) It must be the fruit. So this caramel apple shake I made up kind of satisfies both of those needs, a fruity blend of apples and caramel!

This recipe is also perfect because it is harvest time so the freshly-picked apples are available in farmer’s markets by the dozen. You can find a huge variety of apples, so choose those that satisfy your taste the best. The feeling of autumn in the air will accompany the feeling of the seasons change when you sip this caramel apple shake.

Ingrediants needed:
1 crisp apple
scoop of vanilla icecream with the caramel swirled into it (I go for sugar free and reduced fat)
sugar free caramel syrup
cup of milk (1%)
chopped peanuts.

You blend the icecream, milk and chopped apple together until the consistency of a shake. Add more of either ingrediant to get the texture and flavor you desire. Add Splenda for extra sweetness. Pour into a fancy mug and drizzle the caramel syrup and chopped peanuts to the top.

Stick a thick straw inside and enjoy! Yum!

(The above recipe should be more than enough for one person. Double up the recipe to share with a friend.)
