Course: Breakfast, Dessert, Snack
Keyword: chocolate, dairy free, gluten free, granola, healthy, low sugar, oats, peanut butter

Ingredients

  • 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup hemp seeds
  • 1/4 cup peanuts
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter (only ingredient should be peanuts or peanuts and salt)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • sprinkle sea salt

Instructions

  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper and preheat oven to 300F.
  • Combine oats, hemp seeds, peanuts, cocoa powder, and sea salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add your peanut butter, coconut oil, and honey to a small pot on the stovetop. Stir over low heat just until everything is fully melted.
  • Add your wet ingredients to your dry ingredients and mix until everything is fully coated.
  • Press mixture down onto parchment paper as thin as possible while still keeping it all together. This will help to make clusters! See pictures above.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes or until you start to notice the edges getting slightly crispy. Flip (trying to keep as big of clusters as possible) and bake another 5-8 minutes. Keep a close eye on it so that it doesn't burn! :)
  • Let cool completely and then you can either keep the large clusters or break it down into smaller pieces like traditional granola. I personally like the big clusters!
