Notes
- Adjust the Consistency: If the dressing becomes too thick, add a little extra milk until your desired consistency is reached. If the dressing becomes too thin, stir in a little more powdered peanut butter to thicken it.
- Milk Options: Any milk works well. Unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, cashew milk, soy milk, or regular milk are all great options.
- Honey Swap: You can substitute with sugar-free honey, maple syrup, or sugar-free maple syrup if desired.
- Ginger: Use freshly grated ginger or frozen ginger cubes. I often grate fresh ginger and freeze the leftovers for later use to keep it convenient.
