I love granola. It's so addicting. You can't just eat one handful (or bowl) of granola. Well I can't at least. And buying it in the store can get pretty pricey. $6-7 for a small bag of granola. Why?!? I don't get it.
But that's totally okay because that's how I create all kinds of awesome granola recipes for myself and you guys too. Saving money and spreading happiness all across the internet with each passing moment.
This granola isn't your typical crunchy granola. Here you have a crumbly almost cookie like granola with a bit of crunch. Nuts, cacao nibs, peanut butter (obviously), and a few other nutritious ingredients combined together to create a perfect peanut butter granola. Eat it on it's own, as cereal, on your oatmeal, topping a brownie sundae, etc., etc., etc. You get it!
And now we'll get to the recipe!
Peanut Butter Crumble Granola
serves 6-8
2 cup oats
1 cup mixed nuts
1/2 to 3/4 cup peanut butter (if you really like peanut butter go for 3/4 cup)
1 cup maple syrup
4 tablespoons cacao nibs
2 tablespoon chia seeds
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
2 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl throw together all of the ingredients and mix together. Place on a parchment papered baking sheet and bake for about 25 minutes. Serve, enjoy!
