This Double Dark Chocolate Granola is incredibly addictive and easy to make. I have been eating it plain for a quick sweet snack or eating it as a cereal.

Ingredients
- 4 cups (320 g) oats
- ½ cup (120 g) coconut oil
- ½ cup (120 g) maple syrup
- 1 tsp (4 g) vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp (15 g) dark cocoa powder
- ½ tsp (3 g) salt
- ½ cup (96 g) dark chocolate chips
Instructions
For the Granola
- Preheat your oven to 350 °F (177 °C).
- In a microwave safe bowl, add the maple syrup, coconut oil (or peanut butter), and vanilla. Microwave until the oil is melted.
- To the bowl add the cocoa powder and salt, stir together to combine.
- In a large bowl, add the oats and peanut butter/syrup mixture. Stir to coat the rolled oats.
- On a parchment lined sheet pan, spread the oats in a single layer of about ½" in thickness.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes or until it is slightly firm in the center.
- Allow to cool completely to room temperature and then break it up into pieces of your desired size. Add in the chocolate chips and mix.
- Store in an air tight container. I used the Zwilling CUBE containers which are vacuum sealable dry storage containers. The Granola should last a couple of weeks in the pantry.
- This recipe makes 10 servings. Get a final weight of your total yield and divide this by 10 to obtain the per serving weight. I yielded 620g for 62g per serving.

can you replace the maple syrup with honey? Nutritionally might not be worlds apart but not sure if it would burn in the oven
Yeah you can I do it all the time and it tastes amazing. Honey and PB.
This stuff is fantastic. I’m a massive chocoholic so this is a big hit for me!
You can get similar results by replacing the syrup with a solution if 2 parts brown sugar and 1 part water. Heat on the stove stirring frequently until all sugar is dissolved. It would also be shelf stable so you can make a bunch. This helped me because my grocery store charges a lot for good maple syrup.
