Description
You can mix and match any combination of nuts/seeds and fruits. Just stick with about 1 cup nuts/seeds and 1 cup dried fruit per 3 cups of oatmeal. My favorite combination is below, but any you like will work! See the notes for more options to try…

Notes
Mix & Match –Â You really can use any combination of nuts, seeds, and dried fruit that you like. I prefer to use at least 2-3 kinds of nuts/seeds and 2-3 kinds of dried fruit. My favorite combination is listed in the recipe card, but here are a few other ideas to experiment with…
- Nuts – Almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, pecans, cashews
- Seeds – sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, even chia seeds
- Fruits – Dried apples, cherries, apricots, raisins, dried cranberries, dried pineapple, dried mango, etc.
