Tips

  • We used a nut and seed mix containing raw cashews, sunflower kernels, walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds and pepitas. To toast for extra crunch and flavour, spread nut and seed mix over a baking tray and bake in 160 °C oven for 5-8 minutes or until lightly browned and fragrant.
  • Vary the fresh fruit to serve as desired.
  • Use a non-dairy milk and yoghurt, if preferred
