Peanut Butter Granola You'll Eat by the Handful!

The one thing I always try to make every week is homemade granola.  It's such a good snack (yes, we do eat it by the handful) but we do love it on yoghurt and in our smoothie bowls.  I usually make the same granola, but I thought I'd try this peanut butter version.  It is sooo, sooo good - I add in chocolate chips (optional but in our house necessary) almost like a healthy version of a peanut butter cup and it's good for you.  Are you up to try it?

Let's get to it....

In a bowl, add in 

3 c. large flake oats

3/4 c. nuts (I like slivered natural almonds but any would work - just use raw nuts)

3/4 tsp. sea salt

Into a separate bowl add in

1/3 cup natural smooth peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
3 tablespoons coconut oil

Melt together and stir until smooth

Add in 
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Add to the oat and nuts and stir until well mixed.

Spread onto a parchment lined baking sheet

Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes, stirring once halfway through.

When cool, add in 1/2 c. chocolate chips.

Stir and keep in an airtight container.

Enjoy
