This recipe is eminently adaptable so feel free to mix and match the make-up of seeds and nuts to suit your taste – the Waitrose mixed packs are handy if you’re short on time, and desiccated coconut also makes a great addition. Adding a whisked egg white is a clever trick to help bind it all together.
