Appy Nutty / Cornflaky Milkshake

An apple a day keeps the doctor away. We follow this phrase every day. Our daily fruit box will have one apple, some nuts and 5-6 dates each. Days when we skip having this, we make plain apple milkshakes. I love having the milkshakes rather than chewing on the apples and so mostly skip the fruit box wanted-ly. Adding nuts / cornflakes was A’s idea and we found the combination to be rich and filling. We first tried adding nuts to the milkshake and the next time when we made this, we added cornflakes. Both were equally good, however I preferred the latter.

~*What U Need*~
Red delicious Apple – 2
Walnuts, Badam, Pista / Cornflakes – a handful
Milk – 2 cups
Ice cubes – as needed
Sugar – 2 tbsp
Water – if needed

How I made it:
Peel the skin and core the seeds of the apple. Cut into pieces and drop into blender.
Add the milk, nuts(/cornflakes), sugar and ice cubes and water if needed.
Blend well till you get a smooth mixture. Tit-bits of nuts is okay.

Serve chilled.

Notes:
You can replace the nuts with plain cornflakes to get a crunchy smoothie or you can add both.

So thats it Folks...
With Love,

Signs off!!!
