Makes: 12 clusters approx
INGREDIENTS
1 cup FreshLife Sunflower Seeds
1 cup FreshLife Pumpkin Seeds
1 ¼ cup FreshLife Pecans
1 cup FreshLife Natural Almonds
500g dark chocolate
1 – 2 Tbsp honey (optional)
Pinch of sea salt
METHOD
Roughly chop nuts and place them in a large non-stick frying pan with seeds. Dry roast over a low heat until pumpkin seeds start to pop, continuously stirring with a wooden spoon to ensure no burning.
Place in a mixing bowl and add a pinch of salt and honey if using. Reserve ¼ cup of nut and seed mixture.
Using the bain-marie method, gradually melt the chocolate.
When fully melted, add the chocolate to the bowl of nuts and seeds and stir until all are evenly coated.
On a lined baking tray, spoon the mixture into clusters.
Sprinkle the remaining reserved mixture over clusters to decorate, then allow to set in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge, freezer or a cool pantry.
