MOCHA GRANOLA

I can no longer find my favorite coffee and chocolate granola in stores anymore, so decided to try and replicate it by using the ingredient list and tweaking several different recipes. This is the end result that I enjoy having with milk or as a topping for chocolate pudding or coffee ice cream.

Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats
½ cup coconut oil, melted

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
