This recipe is quick to pull together and can be adapted to cater for nut free (substituting sunflower seeds for the nuts).
Raw cacao powder can be added for a chocolaty fix (add 2 to 4 tbls depending on personal taste), and any form of dried fruit or fresh berries can be used.
For extra flavour you can add the zest of an orange, and for variety add grated carrot or zucchini (but squeeze the zucchini first to remove any excess liquid).
The loaf keeps well for a week, is great toasted, and it can be made ahead and frozen for future use.
