Note

Storage: Keep the dressing refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving as separation may occur.

Variations: For a dairy-free version, substitute the yogurt with coconut yogurt or almond milk yogurt. You can also use almond butter or sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter for a nut-free option.

Tips: Ensure the banana is ripe for the best sweetness and easiest blending. If the dressing is too thick, add a splash of milk or extra lemon juice to reach your desired consistency.
