Instructions

  • Put the banana, almond milk and almond butter in a food processor or small blender and puree until it’s smooth.
  • The mixture can look a little chunky initially, but you’ll get past it to a creamy texture if you just keep on blending.
  • Add a splash of water or non-dairy milk if it needs it - some food processors do and some don’t.
