Notes
- This recipe is very adaptable and you may replace any of the nuts with macadamias, almonds, walnuts or hazelnuts.
- If you cannot find dried white mulberries, then substitute with same quantity of dried cranberries or raisins.
- The coconut oil may be substituted with extra virgin olive oil.
- The honey may be substituted with maple syrup.
- Oats are naturally gluten free but may be processed in a factory with products containing gluten. If you do not have a gluten sensitivity or allergy, then regular rolled oats will do.
