Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups rolled oats
  • ¾ cup nuts chopped, or pecans or almonds
  • ½ cup coconut flakes
  • ⅓ cup honey
  • ¼ cup seeds pumpkin or sunflower
  • 2 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoons flax seeds or hemp seeds
  • 2 scoops Cacao Bliss
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon almond extract
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips or raisins, optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 300°F. Line a large pan with parchment paper.
  2. Combine all ingredients except raisins and/or chocolate chips in a large bowl. Mix well.
  3. Spread onto prepared pan and press the mixture so it sticks together.
  4. Bake 30-40 minutes or until golden.
  5. Remove from the oven and stir in raisins if using. Cool 15 minutes and then sprinkle chocolate chips on top.
  6. Place the pan in the fridge and cool completely. Break into pieces.

Notes

  • Nuts, seeds and add ins can be changed.
  • Press the granola while it comes out of the oven to help it stick together.
  • Sprinkle the chocolate chips over top before it cools. The heat from the granola will melt them just enough that they will stick to the mixture. 
  • Cool completely in the fridge to help the chocolate chips set.
  • Makes approximately 3 cups.
  • Serve as a snack or as a cereal or sprinkle over oatmeal.
