Dietitian’s Tips:
- Add a teaspoon of ground flax seeds or hemp hearts to boost the healthy fats even more!
- Add half a very ripe avocado for another brain boosting ingredient. If you do this, consume the puddings within 2-3 days.
- Get creative and use extra ingredients or flavours that bring you joy! Try apple pumpkin, salted caramel and more.
