Equipment
- 1 Mixing bowl
- 1 Whisk or fork
- Measuring cups and spoons
- 1 baking sheet
- 1 Parchment paper or silicone baking mat
- 1 Spatula or wooden spoon
- 1 Oven
- 1 Cooling rack (optional)
- 1 Airtight container for storage
Ingredients
- ¼ cup natural peanut butter
- ¼ cup sugar free maple syrup
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup unsalted peanuts
- Salt, pinch
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk or stir well until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add rolled oats, peanuts, and a pinch of salt to the peanut butter mixture. Mix everything together until the oats and peanuts are evenly coated.
- Spread the granola mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Press it down gently with a spatula or the back of a spoon to create clusters.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Remove pan and toss granola to ensure even browning. Place the pan back into the oven and bake for another 10 minutes until the granola turns golden brown and crispy.
- Once the granola is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheet.
- Once the granola has cooled, sprinkle dark chocolate chips over the top.
- Transfer the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola to an airtight container for storage. It can be kept at room temperature for up to two weeks, or you can store it in the refrigerator for longer shelf life. Enjoy!
