Double Espresso Granola

Cook Time: 45 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

This is a quality blast of coffee that really balances out the sweetness of the granola.

Ingredients

  • 150g golden demerara sugar
  • 150ml espresso
  • 45g coconut oil
  • 50g maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 250g jumbo rolled oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 80g raisins
  • 60g almonds, whole, skin on
  • 30g brasilian nuts, whole
  • 25g cocoa nibs
  • 20g chia seeds
  • 50g salted peanuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven 1o 140°C/2285°F/Gas 1 and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
  2. Make a light syrup by boiling the sugar and espresso to reduce it by about half.
  3. Mix in the coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the oats, salt, raisins, almonds, Brazilian nuts, cocoa nibs, chia seeds, and peanuts. Stir the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly.
  5. Pour onto the lined baking tray and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 45 minutes, gently mixing with a fork every 15 minutes.
  7. The granola will still be sticky when it comes out of the oven, but will cool to a nice crispiness. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Notes

If you don't have a fancy coffee machine for your espresso, use a good-quality instant coffee.

I have a bad habit of having brioche rolls chocolate chips for breakfast. Which 1- isn’t plant-based and 2- wasn’t going to get well with my cutting off sugar challenge. I did some research and pancakes looked to be a good option. I did remove the sugar from the recipe and added some blueberries (10 grams) per pancake.
