Ingredients

  • 2 cups oats

  • 2 teaspoons instant coffee
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate (roughly chopped)
  • 1/2 cup almonds (roughly chopped)
  • 1/4 cup yogurt drops (or white chocolate chips)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 275℉. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper.

    In a small bowl add the coconut oil, instant coffee and cocoa powder. Stir until well combined (see note 1).

  3. 3

    Place oats in a medium sized bowl and add the oil mixture to the oats. Stir to coat the oats in the oil mixture.

  4. 4

    Spread the oats thinly on the lined baking tray and bake for 25 minutes, removing once during the cooking time to give the oats a stir.

  5. 5

    The granola is ready when it has dried out a little. If you find that it is not, bake for up to 10 minutes more but watch carefully to ensure it doesn't burn.

  6. 6
