The traditional flavor combination of apple and cinnamon is not only great as a desert but also a cold smoothie after a tough workout or as a balanced afternoon snack.
Apples are a great source of vitamin C and various antioxidants to help support the immune system, and cinnamon has been shown to help lower blood sugar and has anti-inflammatory properties.

Personalization tips
- High-protein pre- or post-workout option: Just 2 tablespoons of hemp seeds adds extra 7 grams of protein and 9 grams of healthy fat.
- High-fiber breakfast: Swap the maple syrup for ½ cup of old-fashioned rolled oats and 1 tablespoon of chia seeds. This will add about 10 grams of fiber to your smoothie to start your morning off right.
