Ingredients
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 3 TBSP melted coconut oil or avocado oil
- 2 TBSP honey
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp fine sea salt
- 12 oz milk or dark chocolate melting wafers (I like Ghirardelli)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F with wire rack in the center/middle position. Line an 11×17-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for best results.
- In a large bowl, whisk together (¼ cup) maple syrup, (3 TBSP) coconut oil, (2 TBSP) honey, (2 teaspoons) vanilla and (¼ teaspoon) salt.
- Add (2 cups) oats and (1 cup) sliced almonds and mix well to coat.
- Use a silicone spatula or wooden spoon to transfer the granola mixture onto the parchment paper and spread it out into a super thin layer. Pat to flatten, adding pressure so the granola is nice and compact and most of the parchment is covered.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Rotate the pan (180 degrees) for even toasting. Then bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until golden in color. Ovens vary from home to home so just keep an eye on it and yank once it’s your personal level of golden perfection!
- Once you remove the granola from the oven, allow it to cool on the baking sheet until completely cooled. This will give it the necessary time to get that signature crunch we all know and love. (The granola will not crisp up until it has cooled.)
- Once the granola has fully cooled, melt the chocolate according to the package instructions. Using a zig-zag motion, pour melted chocolate over the sheet of granola and use a silicone spatula to smooth it into an even layer.
- While it's still melty you can add any toppings your heart desires. Feel free to get fancy with it and sprinkle your choice of nuts, dried fruit, shredded coconut, crushed pretzel, chia seeds, sprinkles, white chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, etc... on top.
- Allow the bark to fully cool and break into shareable and snackable pieces. Enjoy!
