Cocoa Granola Recipes

Steps:

• Combine cereal, oats,raisins and white chocolate chips in a big bowl.
• Warm honey, brown sugar, and light corn syrup in a saucepan on the stove top, stirring to combine.
• Add peanut butter and vanilla and stir to combine then take off heat.
• Pour mixture over cereal mixture and mix well.
• Press into a 9 x 13 ungreased pan.
• Be sure to press hard into pan all over so they don't fall apart.
• Put in refrigerator for an hour to cool which makes them easier to cut.
• Cut into 15 bars and enjoy.
• You may also wrap in wax paper and freeze.

Steps:

• Mix and spread onto 2 cookie sheets.
• Bake at 250° for 75 minutes. Do not mix until the end.
• I rotated the cookie sheets every 20-25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Combine brown sugar, maple syrup, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, salt, cayenne pepper, and cocoa powder in a bowl. Whisk thoroughly. Add oats and almonds. Toss and smear the mixture together using a spatula until well coated. Spread mixture evenly over a silicone-lined baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Toss granola with a fork, breaking up any clumps to get a finer texture. Continue baking until desired texture is reached, 30 to 60 minutes more. Sprinkle some granola onto a plate; if it clinks, it is ready. Turn off the oven and leave granola inside the oven to dry and cool to room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish.
• Spread rolled oats, flax seed meal, sliced almonds, shredded coconut, and chia seeds onto a baking sheet.
• Toast oats mixture in preheated oven, stirring every 5 minutes, until lightly toasted, about 15 minutes.
• Reduce oven heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Combine honey, brown sugar, coconut oil, vanilla extract, coconut extract, ground cinnamon, and salt together in a saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved, about 3 minutes. Stir cocoa powder into the honey mixture until dissolved.
• Mix toasted oat mixture and the honey mixture in a large bowl and stir until the dry ingredients are coated; spread into the prepared baking dish and press into an even layer.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Cool bars in pan for 10 minutes, immediately cut into squares, and remove from pan.
