Chocolate Nut Crunch Granola

Miss a nice bowl of crunchy cereal with milk? These quickie recipes offer all that satisfaction. Katie is a Trim Healthy Mama who came up with this idea and shared it in the community. We ran with it and created some of our favorite flavors. Once it cools, you pour this into a cereal bowl and douse it with unsweetened almond or cashew milk (or Foundation Milk, page 439), then stir in a couple tablespoons of Pristine Whey Protein or Integral Collagen for extra protein. This recipe is found in the "Sunrise Eats - Good Morning Grains" section of our Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook, page 255.

1 Single Serve Recipe

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats (plus 1 to 2 Tbsp more, if desired)
  • 1 1/2 tsp TH Super Sweet Blend (or, 3 to 4 tsp Gentle Sweet)
  • 1 pinch mineral salt
  • 1 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp TH Peanut Flour (1 to 2 tsp, see the recipe note below)
  • 1 dash vanilla extract
  • coconut oil spray
  • unsweetened nut milk (almond, cashew, or flax - for pouring over granola)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Mix all the food ingredients well in a medium bowl.
  2. 2
    Coat a medium skillet with coconut oil spray, and place over medium heat. Add the oat mixture and cook until oats are lightly browned, stirring frequently, for 5 to 7 minutes. The cocoa does get a bit black while cooking and looks a little burned, but it still tastes great so just keep stirring and don’t worry too much about that.
  3. 3
    Transfer to a bowl and let cool (the longer it cools the crunchier it gets). Add unsweetened milk with optional protein powder and enjoy.
Note

Intro Continued....Or, you can enjoy it with a Trimmy Light (page 430) or a Collagen Tea (page 436) for added protein.

From page 255 of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook...
"Alternatively, you could increase the cocoa to 1½ teaspoons and omit the peanut flour, and have chocolate granola.  The recipe can be doubled or even quadrupled, if desired."
