Notes

Try other types of berries or fruit. Peaches, raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries are excellent.

If you are not of fan of brown sugar try replacing with it date sugar or coconut sugar. If you want to leave it all out just add a bit of extra maple syrup.

Not a fan of walnuts or pecans? Chopped or whole almonds are great. If you have a nut allergy use sunflower seeds or eliminate them entirely.
