Nuts: 50g of nuts is what the recipe calls for, however feel free to use whichever kind you choose. Almonds provide vitamin E, walnuts provide a robust crunch and a wealth of omega-3 fatty acids, while pecans provide a buttery texture and taste. For more variety, you may also combine different kinds of nuts.
Add seeds if you want to up the nutritious value even further. Sunflower seeds offer a nutty taste and a decent quantity of vitamin E, flaxseeds add lignans and antioxidants, and chia seeds are strong in fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
Add some spices to make it taste even better. Apples and bananas go well with cinnamon, and it helps control blood sugar. Warmth may be achieved with nutmeg and allspice, and a distinct floral note can be brought forward with a touch of cardamom.
Ezoic Dried Fruits: For an additional chewy sweetness, try adding a handful of dried fruits such as cranberries, raisins, or chopped dates. Be wary with dried fruits because of the additional sugars.
Zests and Extracts: For an aromatic twist, add a teaspoon of almond or vanilla extract. To enhance the taste, try adding some zest from an orange or lemon.
