Healthy Chocolate Air Fryer Granola
Skip the store-bought granola and make your own crunchy chocolate granola in the air fryer. This one is energising, filling and packed with goodness.
Equipment
- 1 air-fryer
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup Coconut oil
- ⅓ cup Cacao powder
- ¼ cup Honey
- 3 cups Whole rolled oats
- ½ cup Dried cranberries
- ½ cup Shredded coconut
- ¼ cup Pumpkin seeds
- ⅓ cup Raw cacao nibs
- 3 Tbsp Chia seeds
- 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Melt the coconut oil In a small pot on the stove.
- Add the cacao powder and maple syrup and stir on low heat until combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a large bowl combine the oats, cranberries, coconut, pumpkin seeds, raw cacao nibs, chia seeds and cinnamon. Pour the chocolate mixture over oat mixture and mix until fully combined.
- Give it a taste test. If you want it sweeter, you can add a touch more maple syrup.
- Line the air fryer with parchment paper (you can get special ones for air fryers). Don't skip the parchment paper, this is important.
- Spread the mixture flat onto the parchment paper and pop it into the air fryer at 165°C for 8 minutes.
- After 8 minutes, stir the mixture so it bakes evenly and pop it in for another 5 minutes. Check on it to make sure the granola isn't burning and put it in for longer if needed.
- Once done, remove the basket and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes. Then, carefully lift the parchment paper out of the air fryer and lay it out flat to cool. Once cool, store in an airtight container.
