Tips for the Best Sapodilla Smoothie
- Ripe Fruits: Use fully ripe sapodilla and banana for natural sweetness.
- Nutty Crunch: Soak the nuts for 10–15 minutes for a smoother blend, or leave them raw for extra texture.
- Adjust Sweetness: Skip honey if your fruits are very sweet.
- Oats Power: Use quick oats for easier blending, or rolled oats for a thicker texture.
- Vegan Version: Use plant-based milk like almond, soy, or oat milk to keep it vegan.
Serving Suggestions

- Pair with a handful of granola or a slice of wholegrain toast for a complete breakfast.
- Garnish with chopped nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor.
