Chocolate Keto Granola
By Laura Lea
July 14, 2023
Granola is a breakfast favorite that can be hard to give up when going low carb or keto. Here's a recipe for keto granola that will satisfy the craving (while getting a half-serving of collagen!).
The chunks are a little crispy around the edges, soft in the middle and every bite is studded with chocolate. We included Multi Collagen Chocolate to add flavor, natural sweetness and protein from pasture-raised, wild-caught sources (four food sources in all).
We love enjoying a bowl of this granola topped with a drizzle of almond butter and almond milk. Give this keto granola recipe a try, and tag @lauraleabalanced and @ancientnutrition on IG so we can see your creations!
Preheat oven to 275 degrees F and line a baking sheet with nonstick parchment paper.
Roughly chop macadamia nuts and walnuts and add them to a large mixing bowl, along with all remaining dry ingredients. Stir to evenly incorporate.
Crack eggs into a smaller mixing bowl and check for shells. Add melted butter and vanilla and stir until creamy.
Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until it forms a sticky “batter.” Add to your lined baking sheet and form it into a ball, then top with another piece of parchment. Use your hands or a rolling pin (recommended) to spread batter into an even layer approximately a half-inch thick.
Bake for 50 minutes, and as soon as it comes out, sprinkle evenly with chocolate chips/chunks. Allow to cool at room temperature for 10 minutes, then refrigerate for 25 minutes, or until chocolate is solid (I put a dish towel under the baking sheet when I refrigerate it). Once cooled, break granola into chunks and enjoy!
Granola will keep tightly sealed (completely cooled) at room temperature for two days, then another four days in the fridge.
