Nutritional values
Walnuts are rich in healthy polyunsaturated fatty acids, while the flour, especially if you use whole-wheat flour, stimulates digestion due to its high fiber content. Additionally, the apples contain plenty of secondary plant substances that act as antioxidants, which protect our cells from free radicals.
There are many ways to add variation to this recipe. If you like, you can try other types of flour or vary the types of nuts and fruit included in the recipe. Finally, hazelnuts or almonds combined with pears could also be a great combination!
