Ingredients
  

4 large waffle cones

1 cup mixed nuts (almonds, cashews, walnuts, pecans)

1 cup dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, apricots)

1/2 cup granola (your choice of flavor)

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

Fresh fruit slices (apple, banana, or berries) for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Nut Mix: In a large bowl, combine the mixed nuts, dried fruits, granola, and mini chocolate chips (if using). Stir gently to mix evenly.

    Add Flavor: Drizzle the honey or maple syrup over the mixture and sprinkle the cinnamon. Mix again until everything is coated and combined well.

      Prepare the Waffle Cones: Take the waffle cones and carefully stand them upright in a cup or a muffin tin to stabilize them while filling.

        Fill the Cones: Spoon the nut mix into each waffle cone, packing it gently to ensure it fills well from the bottom to the top.

          Garnish: Add fresh fruit slices on top of each filled cone for a pop of color and added nutrition.

            Serve: Enjoy immediately, or store them upright in the refrigerator for up to a couple of hours, ensuring they stay crispy.
