This is my dessert granola. I feel healthier eating oats and almonds with my chocolate.
Seriously, this granola, baked from a recipe adapted from Orangette, is flavorful and filling. You can find her original recipe here.
Chocolate Granola
preheat oven to 300 degrees
Mix:
3 c oats
1/2 c of KY Kernel pecans and-or almonds (or nuts of your choice)
4 T milled flax
pinch of salt
1/4 c cacao nibs
In a small saucepan, warm:
6 T honey
2 T coconut oil
1 t espresso powder
Pour the warm liquid over the oat mixture; stir well.
