Sourdough Cookie Granola

Inspired by cookie-style granola, this sourdough cookie granola is golden, crunchy, and lightly sweet with melty chocolate chips. This easy homemade granola recipe uses wholesome pantry staples and feels like dessert for breakfast.

Prep Time:5 minutes

Total Time:45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 cups oats
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup sourdough starter
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix oats, chia seeds, sea salt, and cinnamon in large bowl.
  • In a separate smaller bowl, mix coconut oil, sourdough starter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until fully coated and combined.
  • Spread granola evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until golden brown. Don't stir the granola during cooking, this helps create bigger crunchy clusters.
  • While the granola is still warm, sprinkle chocolate chips over top so they melt. Let the granola cool completely before breaking into chunks.

Notes

I love the texture, color, and fiber boost the chia seeds give, but extra oats can easily be substituted.
Feel free to use regular chocolate chips in place of miniature. I find that mini chocolate chips give a more even distribution of chocolate.
