· 1 large frozen banana (for creaminess and natural sweetness)

· 2 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy or chunky, your call!)

· 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or plant-based yogurt)

· 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust to sweetness)

· 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

· 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flax seeds (optional, for extra fiber & omega-3)
