You all deserve it!Chocolate Peanut Butter Granola CV

Chocolate Peanut Butter Granola: chocolate peanut butter granola 1
3 Cups Rolled No. 5 Oats (No Quick Oats now) 
1/2 cup Peanut Butter Powder mixed with about 5 Tbsp Water (or 1/2 cup peanut butter warmed) 
2/3 cup Coconut Oil Melted 
2/3 cup Almonds (or any nut really) 
1/2 cup Coconut Palm Sugar 
3 Tbsp Cocoa Powder 
2 Tbsp Flax seed
1 cup Dark or Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips (Vegan if you are vegan) 

Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mix together your Oats, almonds, cocoa powder, sugar and flax seed. Melt your coconut oil and mix your powdered peanut butter. Add in your oat mixture stir until everything is evenly coated. Spread out onto a prepared cookie sheet. I lay out a piece of Aluminum foil and spray it with nonstick spray and then spread it out. Put into preheated oven and baked for about 30-35 minutes stirring every 10 to 12 minutes. After it is done Baking Add your Chocolate chips in immediately and stir until all the chocolate chips have melted or started to melt. This will create even bigger chunks in the granola. Place in fridge for about 15 minutes to cool. Break apart and put into a zip-loc baggy or sealed container for up to 1 month.

In my apartment the chocolate  peanut butter granola does not last long. We have it for breakfast every morning until it is gone and we also will take it for snacks to work! It keeps us feeling full until the next meal and pairs perfects with some vanilla yogurt! It is also great to take on hikes in the spring and summer when the weather is feeling mighty fine! I love making a couple batches at a time so that it will stay around longer… maybe a week! The chocolate peanut butter granola 4almonds are a great addition but any nut will do. It is great to add some peanuts to give it a more peanut buttery taste but the almonds give it more of a crunch and different taste. Doing half and half is great too.

  6. Ooooh! I really like peanut butter. Sadly, my hubster is seriously allergic to peanuts so we never have it in the house. The only exceptions are when he’s away on a business trip then I sneak a little… 😉 This is a great recipe to keep for when I’m holding down the fort and have the munchies!! Thanks for sharing!

    • You have to be careful with coconut sugar. A lot of those have additives but Organic Coconut Palm Sugar is pure coconut palm sugar. It can be very expensive but when they harvest the sugar the coconut palm no longer produces a coconuts so there is no more sweetness to the palm. Just the label coconut sugar can be processed but sometimes they just shorten the name. However coconut sugar is still a lot better for you than the regular sugar cane! Thank you Kathleen!
