selser is right! Blendtec: please advise removing seeds before pulverizing apples in all of your apple recipes. Apple seeds contain cyanide. If accidentally eaten whole, the seeds have a protective covering and generally pass through unhindered, releasing no cyanide. But if we pulverize them in a recipe like this, the cyanide would be released and could be poisonous.
So, you peel the apples, but don’t core them? Do you have a weight for the apples? Apples can vary a lot in size. Thanks!
Thanks for your input Sandy. The only reason I mentioned it was the BlendTec rep that sold me my BlendTec told me specifically to never injest apple seeds, that they were poison to us. I had never heard that and I probably would have used the whole apple. Can I use whole apples daily without any effect? Are their any nutritonal benefits to the seeds? Also, I would rather keep the skin on the apple for the fiber and nutruition. Any thoughts?
substitute the caramel with a Tbsp of organic coconut oil and a teaspoon of organic grassfed butter. It is creamy and delicious with no sugar or artificially flavored candy. Lots of good fats that our body needs!!!
what would be the soup button/settings on the Blendtec q-series
