Prepare Ingredients: Ensure your apples are cored, diced, and frozen for a smooth and thick texture. Peel and freeze the bananas in advance if not already done.

Combine Base Ingredients: In a blender, add 2 cups of frozen diced apples and 2 frozen bananas.

Add Liquid and Dairy: Pour in 1 cup of milk (your choice of dairy or non-dairy) and ½ cup Greek yogurt. This adds creaminess and helps blend the fruits smoothly.

Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Add ⅓ cup of quick oats. This will thicken the smoothie and add a hearty texture.

Flavor with Spices and Extract: Sprinkle in ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon and ¼ teaspoon of ground nutmeg. These spices bring a warm, autumn flavor. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for a hint of sweetness and aroma.

Blend Until Smooth: Blend all the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides to ensure everything is well combined.

Adjust Sweetness: Taste your smoothie. If you prefer it sweeter, blend in honey or maple syrup to taste.

Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately while it’s cold and refreshing.

Optional Garnish: If desired, garnish with a sprinkle of additional cinnamon or a few oat flakes for a decorative touch.
