Fibre-rich plants foods, such as fresh fruit and vegetables, seeds, nuts, beans, peas, and lentils are all packed with vitamins, minerals and fibre. Eating sufficient portions of these as part of our everyday diet will encourage a healthier digestive system. These nut clusters make for a tasty treat while still providing us with essential nutrients.
I’ve used a bag of mixed nuts, but any combination of plain, raw nuts can be used, and any chocolate of choice too; dark, milk, white, or plant based. They keep well in a sealed container in the fridge for up to five days; perfect to make today and enjoy as an afternoon pick-me-up for the week.
Enjoy!

Chocolate Coated Honey Nut Clusters
Ingredients
- 200g mixed raw nuts
- 100ml honey
- ½ tsp sea salt
- 200g good-quality chocolate, melted
- Sea salt to top
Method
- Preheat the oven to 190°C / fan 170°C / Gas Mark 5. Place the nuts on a baking tray and into the oven for about 7 minutes.
- Take from the oven and once cool enough to touch, roughly chop the nuts and place in a bowl. Add the honey and sea salt. Stir well to combine.
- Divide the mixture between a 12-case silicone bun case, or into a regular 12-case bun tray lined with bun cases. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Allow to cool and set fully before removing from the tray.
- Once the clusters are cold, remove from the tray and dunk in the melted chocolate. Sprinkle over a little sea salt and leave to set before storing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days.
