Feb 27, 2015, Updated Jan 02, 2018 Happy Friday guys! It’s the happiest day of the week and what makes it even more exciting? Some chocolate of course! I am not picky when it comes to chocolate, I can each chocolate in each and every form. Dark, milk, white I love it all. I love it as it is and even it’s inside cookies, cakes or even granola. I guess you guys get my obsession with chocolate. Anyway, so what kind of granola do you guys like? Are you one of those who tries hard to find the big clusters from the granola box? If yes, then this recipe is for you – big cluster chocolate granola! And yes I mean they are really big granola clusters like THIS.
I like regular granola with milk and the clusters for snacking. There’s a problem though, I can’t stop snacking on these especially because chocolate is involved! Sometimes I feel that maybe I need to tape my mouth whenever chocolate is in vicinity, I have absolutely no self control. Anyway this big cluster chocolate granola is super simple to make and it’s vegan too! So yeah it’s kind of healthy, isn’t it awesome when you can eat chocolate and at the same time convince yourself that you are eating healthy? 😀
A lot of recipes for granola clusters call for using an egg white since it helps in holding the clusters together. I didn’t use any and the clusters turned out just fine. The trick is to not stir the oats at all while they are baking, just rotate the tray once at mid-time and then again do not stir while the granola is cooling down. You have to let it cool down for at least 1-2 hours and do not try to stir it while it’s cooling down. Once the granola is cooled, break it into pieces. As you can see my clusters are quite big but you can break the granola into any size you want. Enjoy! Big Cluster Chocolate Granola
