Vegan Peanut Butter Cup Granola

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 6 servings, about 3 cups of granola

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup buckwheat groats
  • 1/2 cup Date Syrup - I use the Date Lady brand
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter - I always use unsweetened PB, and find that if I melt it slightly in the microwave it mixes in more easily
  • 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips or chopped chocolate - I love the PASCHA 100% unsweetened chocolate chips, or Amy's stevia sweetened dark chocolate bars

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, mix the oats and buckwheat.
  • Add the date syrup and peanut butter, then stir until the oat/buckwheat mixture is evenly coated.
  • Line a baking sheet with a nonstick mat or parchment paper and pour the granola onto the sheet, then bake for 20 minutes.
  • Allow the granola to cool for 1-2 hours on the counter - this is when it will get crunchy!
  • Add your choice of chocolate, and store leftovers in a tupperware at room temperature. The granola will soften when stored, so you can re-toast it in the oven or set it out to get some crunch back if you're eating it a few days after baking.
