Quick and easy chocolate granola recipe. A wholesome breakfast perfect for all chocolate cravings!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups (6,3 oz) old fashioned rolled oats
  • 4 Tablespoons (1,7 oz) coconut oil, melted
  • 1/4 cup (1 oz) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup (1,7 oz) packed dark brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup (3,8 oz) honey or agave syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cups (4,5 oz) chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a large oven tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Pour oats into a large bowl and set aside.
  3. In a smaller bowl, mix together the melted coconut oil, cocoa powder and dark brown sugar until combined. Add honey and salt, and mix well. The texture must be quite liquid.
  4. Pour the cocoa and coconut liquid over the oats and mix until oats are moistened.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes, stirring and flipping every 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with 1/2 cup chocolate chips while the granola is still warm and stir well. The chocolate chips will melt, creating large clusters of granola*.
  6. Let cool completely, then add the remaining chocolate chips. You can also fold in some nuts, seeds or dried fruits if desired.

Notes

* Another option is to let cool the granola completely and add the chocolate chip after. They will not melt or create clusters but you’ll have wonderful chocolate chips in your granola.
