1/8 cup EVOO
1/8 cup Coconut oil
1/3 cup PURE maple syrup
1/4 cup of my homemade peanut butter
1/2 tsp organic sea salt
1 tsp cinnamon
4 cups old fashioned oats
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1/2 cup raw peanuts
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup sliced almonds
2/3 cup chopped dark chocolate - buy lindt or ghiradelli 90% dark bars and chop them up. This is very close to being sugar free, and no extra work is required.
Another option is to buy unsweetened carob chips.
My personal choice for an option is to buy a bar of unsweetened chocolate. Chop it up, put it in a double boiler, and add raw honey to sweeten. Once mixed to desired sweetness, spread the mixture over wax or parchment paper and place in the freezer for 20 minutes. When it's frozen, chop it up.
What To Do:
Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
Bring oils, syrup, peanut butter, salt, and cinnamon to a simmer on the stove. Allow to simmer, stirring to mix well, for 3 to 5 minutes.
Combine dry ingredients and pour warm mixture over them and mix until coated.
Spread granola over two aluminum-lined baking sheets and place in oven for 40 minutes. You may wish to stir halfway through.
Allow granola to cool completely before adding chopped chocolate.
Enjoy :)
