Homemade Granola Recipe Ingredients
To make the chocolate coconut granola recipe, you will need: 1 tbsp coconut oil 3 cups gluten-free rolled oats 3 tbsp honey or agave nectar 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder 3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut 1/2 cup unsweetened dark chocolate chips To make: Heat a large pan on the stove over medium-high heat. Add the coconut oil and let it melt over the heat. Once the coconut oil is melted add the oats and stir them around in the coconut oil, continuing to stir as the oats begin to toast over the heat. Toast the oats for about 4-5 minutes in the pan, stirring frequently so they don’t burn. Turn the heat down to low and add the honey or agave nectar and the cocoa powder. Stir the mixture well over the heat until all the ingredients are well combined. Turn off the heat, scrape the mixture into a large bowl and add the coconut, reserving a tablespoon or so for a garnish (if you wish).

OK 2 questions: can it be done with rolled oats or should the method be changed? AND why steel cut? I never guessed they would toast into something that wouldn't break your teeth lol! I am loving this recipe!

Diamonds may be a girls best friend. . .but so is chocolate and coconut. This granola looks absolutely divine and I can't wait to try this for breakfast. . .with a dollop of yogurt, of course.
