Notes
Taylor says you can sub any nuts/seeds you'd like in this recipe. She's tried multiple combinations and has yet to find one she didn't like.
Michele's note: I can see adding some cinnamon or pumpkin spice into this recipe as well to give it a wonderful different flavor, so see how versatile this can be? Different nuts/seeds or different spices and you could have this so many times and not get sick of it.
