FAQs

Can I use fresh dates or another sweetener instead?

Yes, fresh dates work well, or you can substitute with honey, maple syrup, or a few drops of liquid stevia according to your preference.

What if I don’t have all the spices listed?

You can omit the cloves or ginger if you don’t have them, but try to keep the cinnamon and nutmeg for that classic apple pie taste. The smoothie will still be delicious with fewer spices.
