notes

  • For a soy-free version, try soy-free, vegan cream cheese, or make my chickpea tofu recipe (the white silky tofu version). Read the blog post above for more helpful tips.
  • If you don’t like bananas, leave it out and use vegan cream cheese instead!
  • I used unsweetened creamy peanut butter. You can use almond oil or any other nut oil. For the walnut-free version, use sunflower oil.
  • You can use a different sweetener such as date syrup, rice malt syrup, agave syrup.
