Healthy Homemade Chocolate & PB Granola
Homemade granola recipe for a healthy start to the day: chocolate and peanut butter flavour.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Jumbo oats
- 2 tbsp cacao powder
- 2/3 cup hazelnuts chopped
- 1/3 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup coconut oil melted
- 1 tbsp peanut butter heaped
- 1 cup chocolate chips vegan
Instructions
- Preheat the oven at150*C.
- In a mixing bowl, add the oats, the cacao powder, the coconut sugar, the hazelnuts and the seeds. Mix well until everything is coated in cacao.
- In another bowl, mix the coconut oil, the peanut butter and the maple syrup until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well. The whole mix should be a bit wet, which means it will crunch in the oven. (Is "crunch" a verb you can use like this? Hmm not sure but you know what I'm saying).
- Spread the granola on a large baking tray, and put in the oven for an hour, stirring every 20 minutes.
- Once it is all cooked, let cool on the side, then add the chocolate chips and mix well so they're well spread in the overall mixture.
- Keep in an airtight container for up to 4 weeks.
