Ingredients

• 3 cups Gluten-free rolled oats
• 1 cup Raw almonds
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup Coconut flakes
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips (gluten-free)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, raw almonds, unsweetened cocoa powder, and coconut flakes. Stir well to ensure they are evenly mixed.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the maple syrup and coconut oil. Stirring constantly, heat the mixture until the coconut oil is melted and fully combined with the maple syrup.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated with the wet mixture.

Step 6

Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown and slightly crisp. Be careful to not let it burn.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the granola to cool completely on the baking sheet. It will become crunchier as it cools.

Step 9

Once cool, stir in the mini chocolate chips. Transfer the granola to an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to two weeks.
