Chef’s Notes
- Breaking the banana into pieces makes it easier to blend.
- When freezing ripe bananas, peel first.
- Be sure to buy a brand of almond butter that has no added sugars.
- Create your own versions by adding unsweetened soy milk to make it creamier or other unsweetened alternative milk.
- Allergic to nuts? Try sunflower seed butter.
- Tired of vanilla? Replace it with cinnamon.
