Four ingredients is all you need to make this smoothie. 3 of them you already know about. The final ingredient is the smoothie base, which is almond milk

The steps to making this apple kiwi smoothie for weight loss:
- Prepare the fruit; peel the kiwi and banana (I like to keep the peel on my kiwi, but that’s up to you) dice and core the apple.
- Grab a blender, and add the apple to your blender first, followed by the milk and the rest of the ingredients.
- Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency, it took me about 3 minutes with my blender.
- Serve this banana kiwi apple smoothie with dairy-free milk and enjoy!
How To Elevate This Smoothie Recipe
I used 4 basic ingredients to make this smoothie, so it may be a bit too basic for your liking.
However, elevating this smoothie and making it a bit more interesting is super easy, because lots of ingredients can work well with your core 3 ingredients; banana, apple and kiwi.
Here are some ideas for you:
- Add more richness to your smoothie by adding some nut butter. One of the times I made this smoothie I added a tablespoon of almond butter and it worked great!
- For a totally nut-free smoothie, you can either use coconut water or other dairy-free milk of choice.
- Add seeds! I love adding chia seeds to most of my smoothies, but with this smoothie, it works even better. Chia seeds will add omega-3 fatty acids and fiber to the smoothie.
- Make it a super nutritious breakfast by adding oats and yogurt to the blender along with the other listed ingredients. This is of course if you are not vegan.
