Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 200 F.
  • Using a food processor, coarsely chop the walnuts and almonds. Nothing too fine, as you will have to put them through the food processor again. Leave the nuts in the processor and set them aside for later use.
    1 cup walnuts, 1 cup almonds
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter with the honey and whisk occasionally. Once combined, add the cocoa powder, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together.
    pinch of salt, ¼ cup raw honey, 3 tablespoon cocoa powder, ½ teaspoon vanilla extract, 3 tablespoon butter or clarified butter
  • Pour the chocolate mixture into the nuts in the food processor. Pulse briefly, just until the chocolate is consistently mixed in. Add the coconut and pulse one more time.
    ½ cup shredded coconut, 2 oz dark chocolate
  • Spread the mixture out over a baking sheet. Bake for 4 hours in the preheated oven.
  • Once the granola has finished baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Break the granola apart into small chunks. Also, break apart the 2 oz chocolate and mix in with the granola.
