Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 1/2 cups almonds sliced
- 3/4 cup coconut shredded, unsweetened
- 1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 300 F.
-
In a large bowl combine oats, almond slices and shredded coconut.
-
Heat coconut oil and honey in a small bowl (in the microwave, stove top or in preheating oven) until melted and stir together with vanilla extract.
-
Pour over oat mixture and combine. Place the mixture on a large baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and stir. Then bake for another 10-15 minutes.
-
Sprinkle warm granola with chocolate chips and stir until the chocolate is melted and coats the granola.
-
Let cool (you can speed this up in the fridge) before breaking into clusters. Store in an airtight container (like mason jars). In warm months I keep this granola in the fridge to keep the chocolate from melting.
