Chocolate Cold Brew Protein Granola

After trying this recipe, you will NEVER want to go back to store bought granola. This is so much tastier, and better for your budget! One serving of this granola costs $0.52 while a similar granola from the store would cost you $1.18 per serving … over double the price! And for my recipes, the serving sizes are bigger! So its even more of a band for you buck

It is high in protein and fiber!

Ingredients

• 4 cups rolled oats

• 1/2 cup of liquid sweetener (I use agave, you could also use honey or maple syrup)

• 1 1/3 cup peanut butter

• 2 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 scoop Vedge Nutrition Chocolate Protein Powder

• 1 scoop Vedge Nutrition Cold Brew Protein Powder (code VONNY)

• 2/3 cup vegan chocolate chips

• Optional: add in your fav add ons like

  • peanuts

  • pecans

  • walnuts

  • almonds

  • hemp hearts

  • chia seeds

  • flax seeds

  • raisins

  • craisins

  • dices apples

  • cropped dates

  • goji berries

Directions

1. In a large bowl, mix together your oats and protein powder. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.

2. In a separate, medium size bowl, add in your sweetener, peanut butter and vanilla extract. Whisk this together until a consistent mixture is created. Then pour this over your oats and protein powder.

3. With a wooden spoon or spatula, mix the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients until it appears that all of the oats and protein powder have been coated.

4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking sheets. Spread your granola mixture across the baking sheet evenly, creating a thin layer. Try to spread out and break up up large chunks with your spatula. Bake this on 325 for 15-25 minutes until the oats start to harden. Once you can smell it, it’s probably ready to come out.

5. Remove your granola from the oven and sprinkle your chocolate chips across the baking sheet. When the chocolate has melted, mix the granola again on the baking sheet and wait for the granola and chocolate to cool and harden.

6. Once the granola is cooled, store in an airtight container in your fridge for up to 2 weeks!

7. Eat the granola on its own, with milk, over yogurt, throw on your oatmeal, or however you like! My favorite is to have it with Kite Hill Greek Style Yogurt and berries :)

Vedge protein is easily the best vegan protein powder I have tried over my years of being vegan since 2020. Truly no other protein powder has been able to compare in terms of flavor, texture and nutrient profile. I love all of their flavors, and especially the Vanilla Ice Cream Flavor.
