This chocolate granola is light and gently crisp from quinoa and oats, with rich cacao flavor and subtle nuttiness from peanuts. It has a soft crunch and just the right amount of natural sweetness, perfect with milk, yogurt, smoothie bowls, or fresh fruit.
- Combine the melted coconut oil, peanut butter, maple syrup, and cacao powder in a large bowl and mix until smooth and glossy.(5 minutes)
- Add the puffed quinoa and oats, stirring until everything is evenly coated.(2 minutes)
- Spread the mixture in an even layer on a parchment-lined baking tray and bake at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes.(10 minutes)
