Chef's Note
For an extra layer of flavor complexity, try toasting the walnuts with a tiny pinch of sea salt. This enhances their natural nuttiness and creates a beautiful contrast with the sweet honey. You can also prepare the toasted oats and nuts in larger batches to have on hand for quick assembly throughout the week.
