This was super delicious, ashlynn08. I made it exactly as written (using apples and almonds for my fruit and nut options), and it went over real well with my family. It was delicious as written but it was super delicious with warm maple syrup drizzled on top. Made for the Spring 2014 Pick-A-Chef event.
