Apple, Vanilla Bean and Caramel Smoothie #backtoschooltreats

I received product samples from sponsor companies to aid in the creation of the #BacktoSchoolTreats week recipes. All opinions are mine alone.

Back to school treats should be easy on both mom and student! This apple smoothie can be made by any kid because you can mix ahead and freeze the applesauce.  This saves time and measuring! I freeze the applesauce and all the liquid ingredients except the milk and save in baggies.  Grab a baggie, a carton of milk and blend away!


Easy to make and very delicious!  I want to say thank you to Torani for the apple syrup and the caramel syrup. Yum!  I'd like to thank Sweet and Treats for the darling straws, and for the vanilla paste. You all made some good smoothies.
