Ingredients
Scale
- ⅓ cup Maple Syrup
- ⅓ cup Almond Butter
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 tbsp Cacao Powder
- ½ tsp Salt
- 2 cups Rolled Oats
- ¾ cups Hazelnuts, chopped in half
- ½ cup Pumpkin Seeds
- ½ cup Unsweetened Coconut Flakes
- ½ cup Dairy-Free Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325F. Add the Maple Syrup, Almond Butter, Vanilla Extract, Cacao Powder, and Salt to the base of a large bowl. Whisk until evenly incorporated.
- Pour the Oats, Hazelnuts, Pumpkin Seeds, and Coconut into the bowl and fold them into the wet mixture, until all pieces are evenly coated. Transfer this mixture to a greased or lined baking tray and press it into a thin, even layer using a spatula.
- Bake for 20 minutes on the bottom rack of the oven, then remove and use a spatula to toss/flip the granola. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 6-7 minutes, then remove.
- Immediately sprinkle the Chocolate Chips over the mixture, using a spatula to gently toss them. If you’d like the Chips to completely melt, stir them a bit more until they melt completely. Let the Granola and Chocolate cool completely on the tray before removing.
- Serve as desired; store leftovers at room temperature or in the fridge (recommended for crunchier granola) for up to one month.
Notes
- Maple Syrup may be substituted with another liquid Sweetener
- Almond Butter may be substituted with another Nut or Seed Butter
