Avocado turns this light apple and pear smoothie into something velvety and filling. The fruit stays in front, the avocado just gives texture and a soft green colour.
Garnish: Thin apple slice · Ice: Served up, no ice
Apple Pear Smoothie with Avocado
Creamy and velvety with sweet pear, a fresh apple note and a soft, rounded finish.
Apples and pears are available all year and are among the most affordable smoothie fruits. Blended whole, they keep their fibre, which gives the drink body and a naturally sweet base. Half an avocado makes the smoothie as creamy as one made with yoghurt, while keeping it plant based; it also adds mostly unsaturated fats that make the drink more satisfying. With water as the only liquid, the flavour stays fresh and fruity. A good breakfast smoothie that keeps you going until lunch.
Only faintly; pear and apple dominate.
Yes. It contains only fruit and water.
Better not: avocado browns and the smoothie loses its fresh colour.
