    • You can add some dried fruit – raisins, dried cranberries, chopped dates, or dried pineapple, papaya or mango for a tropical vibe.
    • You can add maple syrup or any other sweetener for extra sweetness.
    • You can top it with chopped nuts such as walnuts, brazil nuts, almonds, pecans, macadamia nuts or pistachios.
    • You can top it with desiccated coconut or coconut flakes.
    • You can create a chocolate flavour by adding some cocoa powder or topping it with cacao nibs.
    • You can top it with pan-fried bananas.
    • You can top it with fresh fruit – raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, cherries etc.
