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 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.
