Do you know what I enjoy the most? When my milk in the Granola turns into chocolate milk. I will admit to being a chocolate-loving sweet tooth. All the more I enjoyed the creation of this recipe. Quick and easy, with bombastic chocolate flavor, crunchy nuts and of course coconut flakes. Sooooo delicious and simply a must on every Breakfast table .
Chocolate coconut granola for breakfast
Can it actually be too much vegan chocolate? I say no, but that is certainly a matter of taste. From my point of view, chocolate is always and everywhere justified. But now exactly with philosophizing about the sweet things in life. Let’s take a look at the ingredients together.
Do you also love it when your almond milk turns into chocolate milk?
Rolled oats, chopped nuts, coconut flakes, chia seeds, coconut blossom sugar, cocoa powder, coconut oil and maple syrup. Sounds manageable? It is and the preparation also takes only 10 minutes. The rest of the work is done by the oven and you are only faced with one crucial question: Should I add extra chocolate or not? I love questions like this!!!
Are Chia Seeds Really That Healthy?
Yes they are! The small power packets have it in them, are healthy and versatile:
- The seeds have with 20% the highest proportion of omega-3 fatty acids found in plants and already one tablespoon covers the entire daily requirement of alpha-linolenic acid.
- already 2 tbsp. cover the daily requirement of vitamin E
- the seeds contain a lot of soluble and insoluble fiber, which stimulate the metabolism and detoxify it
With this delicious vegan Granola dar
f course, the topping is not missing. I opted for a berry compote and coconut yogurt. But everything is allowed here, from fresh fruits and berries (I’m so looking forward to the season again), to vegan cottage cheese and yogurt of all kinds. The possibilities are endless. The perfect accompaniment is a homemade Almond milk or oat milk. PS: Even without toppings this is Granola perfect as a vegan snack in between meals.
