Ingredients
Scale
- 1/3 cup coconut oil
- 1/3 cup maple syrup*
- 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/3 cup chocolate protein powder
- 2 1/2 large flake rolled oats
- 1 cup mix ins (chocolate chips, slivered almonds, pepitas)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300 F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut oil and maple syrup until smooth, followed by the addition of the peanut butter, mixing again until smooth. Add in the protein powder and stir until thoroughly mixed. It will be thick!
- To the wet ingredients, add the rolled oats and all mix ins, other than the chocolate chips (see step 5). Stir in the oats until completely coated.
- Spread the granola out on the parchment paper into an even layer, then place the tray into the oven for 15 minutes. At 15 minutes, stir the granola around and then place back in the oven for another 5-10 minutes or until it is browned and fragrant. Be sure to check it after that additional 5 minutes!
- Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool before adding any chocolate chips. Once cooled, enjoy or add to an airtight container to store for 2-3 weeks.
