Vegan Chocolate Almond Granola


This granola recipe is sure to become your favorite.  It's chocolaty, sweet, and nutty.  Enjoy this as a granola cereal, or for a tasty afternoon snack, even on top of your favorite vegan ice cream.

I have made granola before, this time I added a bit of this and that to make it flavorful.  Never before had I been won over by any granola recipe in particular, until I tried this one.

Make a batch this holiday weekend to bring to your Memorial Day celebration.

This recipe is adapted from One Degree Organic Foods.   I added chocolate chips, because I believe chocolate should be in everything we eat!  Also, I swapped out the pecans for almonds.  Lastly, I used agave syrup instead of the original maple syrup.





Ingredients:

2 cups organic One Degree quick oats
1 cup organic almonds
1 cup organic shredded coconut
1 cup vegan mini chocolate chips
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup organic agave nectar
1/3 cup organic extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup water
1 1/2 organic pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon organic pure almond extract
1/2 cup One Degree sunflower seeds

Method:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees; line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper.

Mix dry ingredients together in a large bowl.  In another bowl combine the wet ingredients.  Combine the wet with the dry.  If the mixture is too dry, add extra water or agave nectar.

Spread granola evenly onto the baking sheet.

Bake until granola is dry (approximately1 hour).
