Chocolate Granola is very popular around here. All four of the kids like to eat it as a snack, and lately Malachi has been eating it with milk for breakfast. It's easy and fast to make, and then it cooks at a low temp for about an hour, so I really like to make it now, when having the oven on for an hour really makes the kitchen feel cozy.
Chocolate Granola
4 c oats
1/3 c cocoa
1 c sunflower seeds or nuts, optional
1/4 c ground flax, optional
1 T vanilla extract
pinch salt
scant 1/2 c water
3/4 c sugar (brown or white, your pick)
Mix the dry ingredients together. Heat the water for a minute in the microwave, then add sugar and stir to combine. Pour over rest of ingredients, and mix well. It's not very wet, just barely moist, when well mixed. Spread on 2 baking sheets (covered with parchment) and bake at 275 for about an hour.
