Substitutions

Peanut Butter: I used creamy peanut butter for this recipe, but you can swap this in with the crunchy version if you like. Look for one without any added oils or sugar for the healthiest option (check the ingredient label).

Vegan Yogurt: Taste test the yogurt before using in this recipe. If you like the taste of it plain, it will work well in this parfait. Choose an unsweetened yogurt, without vanilla or another flavor.

Maple Syrup: Choose pure maple syrup, without added ingredients. Replace it with agave nectar, although it will not be refined sugar-free.

Cacao Powder: Cacao is the unprocessed version of cocoa, which can be used instead. Cocoa loses some of its antioxidant powder due to the way it is processed.
