Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup chopped almonds (or nuts of choice)
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup maple syrup (or honey)
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, cocoa powder, and salt. Mix well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
Step 3
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the peanut butter, maple syrup, and coconut oil. Stir until the mixture is well combined and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
Pour the peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until all the oats and nuts are evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, pressing it down gently to form a flat layer.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even baking. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning, especially around the edges.
Step 7
Once baked, remove the granola from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet. The granola will crisp up as it cools.
Step 8
Once cooled, sprinkle the dark chocolate chips over the granola and gently mix them in.
Step 9
Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. Serve with milk, yogurt, or enjoy it as a snack!
