• 1 tsp of vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

Notes

• Any kind of vanilla or unflavored protein powder will work.
• You may replace the maple syrup in this recipe with liquid stevia or munkfruit to make it sugar-free.
  Because those sweeteners are a little sweeter than maple syrup, make sure to only use half the recommended dose in the recipe.
• Ensure to use vegan chocolate chips in order to keep this recipe vegan.
• Although the recipe as stated is gluten-free, it is a good idea to make sure the brand of almond milk you choose is recognized as gluten-free if you have celiac disease.
