It’s comfort-food flavor with high-protein benefits.

Ingredient Benefits

🍎 Apple (with skin): Fiber + Gut Health

Keeping the skin on adds essential fiber, antioxidants, and natural sweetness. Apples support digestion, heart health, and stable energy.

💪 Cinnamon Protein Powder: Cozy Flavor + Muscle Support

Cinnamon adds warmth while the protein powder supports strong muscles, better metabolism, and steady blood sugar.

🥄 Tahini: Hormone-Balancing Healthy Fats

Tahini is rich in calcium, iron, and healthy fats — perfect for women needing nourishment for hormone balance and energy.

🧊 Silken Tofu: Plant Protein + Creaminess

Tofu blends beautifully, adding creaminess and a surprising protein boost without affecting the flavor.

🌱 Ground Flaxseed: Omega-3s + Fiber

Flaxseed supports digestion, reduces inflammation, and adds beneficial fats that support brain function and hormone health.

🌼 Apple Pie Spice: Anti-Inflammatory Boost

The spice blend (typically cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice) supports blood sugar balance and gut health.

🥛 Warm Cashew Milk: Smooth + Delicious

Cashew milk blends into a warm, silky base that feels like a cozy winter treat.

✨ Vanilla Extract: Natural Sweetness

Vanilla adds depth and enhances the apple-pie flavor without added sugar.
