Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate Granola

I have been on a homemade granola kick recently – we can’t get enough of it! I almost always make my tried and true crunchy granola recipe, but a few weeks ago I decided to try a new recipe for peanut butter dark chocolate granola. And wow was it good! We are obsessed with this granola. I managed to cut the sugar down slightly and sub out some less than healthy ingredients for healthier ones, which means that while this is a sweet treat, you don’t need to feel totally guilty about eating it. 🙂

This peanut butter dark chocolate granola is just about perfect. It’s crunchy and chewy and  sweet and delicious. The dark chocolate chips add just the right amount of chocolate in each bite, and when you bake it, the granola settles into these delicious chewy clumps that I can’t get enough of. I’ve been eating a few spoonfulls on top of yogurt for breakfast and it’s my new favorite breakfast. Best of all, you can easily customize this to add in some nuts or dried fruit, or whatever it is you like to eat in your granola. I hope you try this one – it’s addicting!
