Tips & Notes
- Any plant-based milk works here — oat milk (certified GF) gives the richest mouthfeel; almond milk keeps it lighter.
- Squeeze excess moisture from thawed frozen spinach in a clean towel before adding it, or the dish will be watery.
- Refrigerate maple syrup after opening and use within a year.
