Top tip
The possibilities are endless with this recipe. Using soy-based milk and yogurt offers a plant-based option that’s still rich in protein. If you're vegan or prefer maple syrup, feel free to use it. You can also swap flaxseeds for chia seeds or mixed seeds and use any unsweetened nut butter in place of peanut butter. Don’t hesitate to experiment with different fruits to match your taste!
