🍊 FAQ's
If you don't like bananas, feel free to keep them out of this recipe. I just add them to add some extra creaminess. Add frozen pineapple instead.
If you're allergic to soy, you can substitute the soy milk and soy yogurt for any other plant based alternatives.
I only chose soy milk and soy yogurt because they contain the highest amount of protein of all of the dairy free yogurts and milks.
If you don't have any medjool dates on hand, you can just substitute with some pineapple, an apple or a pear to make up for the sweetness in the dates.
