There was some texture to it as another reviewer commented. That said it was a texture I quite liked. For those thinking of trying this recipe the texture is a little bit like pulp in orange juice. I loved the smoothie and I would recommend it to others Read More

I loved it! No issues with texture as others mentioned. I did however use a Nutri-bullet & it blends for a full two minutes before shutting off. Mine was smooth & creamy. For an extra protein boost I added my fav vanilla protein powder. Read More

I made the recipe almost as-is using a Granny Smith apple and omitting the honey as my peanut butter is sweetened. I made it in a Vitamix so it came out very smooth. Loved the taste -- like an apple pie is a good description. I like my smoothies as meal replacements so I'm going to used this recipe as a base for something with a bit more protein and nutrition -- thinking silken tofu or yogurt and maybe some spinach. At the very least I'm adding chia seeds when I make it again tomorrow morning! Read More

I gave this a 3 star because I didn't really like this. I had to make some tweaks such as using 1% milk and also pure vanilla. This may be why I don't like it. For me it is too vanilla and hardly any peanut butter. Read More

The texture was odd but I could handle it. I made another one with ice cream instead of ice and I liked the thickness a lot better. Read More
