  • Author: Victoria

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 ripe bananas (frozen for a creamier texture)
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or your preferred milk alternative)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for added creaminess and protein)
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • 1/4 cup raw almonds (chopped)
