Fall Fruit Smoothie with Pear, Plum and Cinnamon
You may think smoothies are just for summer's ripest berries, but blend a harvest of fall pears and plums into a mousse-like whip with almond milk, almond butter and cinnamon and you may never go back to berries. Not only is this smoothie vegan, but it's made without ice, so it's the perfect treat on a chilly fall day.
