Who's ready for a thick and creamyoatmeal smoothie bursting with sweet apricot and cinnamon spices?!?I'm gonna go out on a limb and bet you've never had an apricot smoothie before. I think when mostpeople have smoothies they automatically go for strawberry orblueberry flavors.

This includes me! I know, I know, it's hard to break those habits, but from time to time it's goodto mix things up with other fruits and flavors, and I have toadmitI'm kind of obsessed with apricotright now. So what better to do than to put them in a smoothie?

I foundfrozen apricots at Whole Foods a few weeks ago. Admittedly, it'snot a fruit I normally buy or eat so when I saw them, they immediately caught my attention. By the way, ifyou can't find apricotsfrozen you can alwaysuse a fresh apricot for the recipe, blend the ingredients together and freeze overnight.

The overnight part is optional as well, but highly recommended!Letting it sit overnightmakes the smoothie extra thick andcreamybecausethe gluten free oats, flaxseed and milk mingle overnight.By morning, it becomesa lusciously sweet apricot smoothie that'sperfect to wake up to and great to run out the door with. It's like having ice cream for breakfast!

An eating tip -> useaspoon or a thin straw to sip on it. That way you can savor the flavors forhours. There's something blissful about sipping onadeliciously sweet smoothie fora really long time.It's all about making the experience last longer. Seriously, it's life changing!

Hope you love it as much as I do!
