KETO CACAO COCONUT GRANOLA

Granola has always been one of my favorite things to eat. I bet that’s the same for you because… who doesn’t love it? It’s the perfect morning, on-the-go, after school, or anytime snack.

This granola recipe would be amazing in a bowl of almond milk with some fresh berries, but I wanted to try it out on my keto “yogurt” recipe.  Let me just tell you…parfaits will never be the same. DELICIOUS.

This recipe is incredibly simple, and crunches up in practically no time at all. Because you can store it in your fridge for up to 2 weeks, this is the PERFECT thing to make on a Sunday and eat throughout the week….if it lasts that long. 

And here’s a look at just how guilt free this granola is. For a 1/2 cup serving we’re looking at:
