Nutritional values

Walnut kernels provide a tasty bite and a portion of unsaturated fatty acids that are good for the blood vessels. Together with oat flakes and wholemeal flour, they also bring valuable B vitamins into play.

If you prefer, you can also use whole hazelnut kernels instead of walnut halves to cover the dough.
