Chocolate Almond Granola

Granola is honestly the best thing in my life at the moment. It's perfection. I eat it for a quick breakfast as cereal or at lunch or for a snack or for dessert. Okay every meal I could eat granola. 

This recipe is originally from The Kitchy Kitchen, found here: http://www.thekitchykitchen.com/?recipes=/parfait-go-mom-monday/


Ingredients:
3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
1/4 cup agave nectar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups gluten free oats
1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder 
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups slivered almonds (optional) (I roughly chopped some almonds lazily)
Instructions: 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
1. Combine the coconut oil, agave, and vanilla extract together.
2. Mix in the oats, cinnamon, chipotle, cocoa powder, sea salt, and almonds.
3. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes. Stir every ten minutes, but check regularly to not burn almonds. 
4. Allow to cool and then store in air tight container at room temperature.
