Mocha Chip Granola
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 2 cups raw unsalted almonds
- 1 cup raw unsalted walnuts
- 1/2 cup raw unsalted pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 cup raw unsalted sunflower seeds
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut flakes
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 3 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup real maple syrup
- 1/3-1/2 cup coconut sugar*
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 3 tsp instant coffee or finely ground coffee beans
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 2/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees (F).
- Add the almonds to a food processor and do a quick pulse (maybe only 3-4 times). Now add the remaining nuts: walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds. Do another few pulses so that you have various sizes and textures of the nuts/seeds. Place in a large bowl.
- Now add the coconut flakes and chia seeds to the nut/seed mixture.
- Prepare the wet ingredients: In a small saucepan, whisk together the coconut oil, cocoa powder, maple syrup, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and coffee. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then remove from heat. It should be thickened.
- Now spread out on a large baking sheet. Lining it with parchment paper is definitely helpful! Bake for 20 minutes, give it a quick stir, then bake another 15ish minutes.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely. Place in a bowl and add in the chocolate chips.
