Chocolate granola for breakfast? Well, it’s a must in our home. This big jar, let’s just say, doesn’t last long…two or three days tops! The combination with sesame and coconut chips, we all love it. I love having it with chia pudding or by itself, as a dessert or a snack. It will take you only half an hour to get the whole thing done, preparation and baking. So easy and totally fail safe. You just have to be careful not to burn it. I wrote basic rules how to make granola in Golden Granola post and believe me, it’s much easier than you think. I’m sure that after reading them you’ll get hang of how easy it actually is.

8. Be careful not to burn it. Check and mix after about 6-7 minutes of baking

Just a great idea to make a granola. I haven’t make some for a while. To busy with other Food stuff. I also use coconut sugar in my kitchen. I bought coconut sugar syrup yesterday. Have you ever use it?

Hi sweetie!
Catching up here..
Thank you so much! Yes, noting like homemade granola. I never use store bought ones. Oh, I never used coconut sugar syrup… How was it? Did you try it yet?
Hugs!
