The short answer is  : yes . But When compared to entire apples, apple juice isn’t nearly as full, and it’s also lacking in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. If you truly want to enjoy smoothies with apple juice, go for a cloudy, organic juice with the pulp to absorb more healthy plant elements and prevent pesticide contamination.I recommend choosing a low-sugar or 100% juice option.

Can You Put Apple In A Blender ?

Yes . Even with the skin on, apples may be blended to produce a tasty smoothie. the real question is How to Blend Apples in a Blender ?

Here some steps we recommend :

1. To begin, carefully wash and peel your apples. Remove the core as well as the seeds.
2. To make it easier to blend, cut up the apples into chunks.
3. Drop the apple pieces into a blender, filling it no more than half way.
4. Blend the apples on high until they reach the desired consistency.This takes only a few seconds, so keep an eye on the apples and only mix for two or three seconds at a time.
5. Using a rubber spatula, remove the pureed apples from the blender and place them in a bowl.
