I have always loved our honey granola, but lately we have been on a MAJOR almond butter kick.

I decided to switch it up and make it with almond butter, and I added in some coconut chips and chopped almond.

The good news is, it turned out great. The bad news is, I can’t stop eating it. It tastes great in a yogurt bowl (pictured below), paired with almond milk, or just eaten plain with a spoon.

I love this as a snack. I will put it in my kids school lunches, or send them out the door, on busy mornings.

Whether it’s eaten as a snack, breakfast, topping off a desert, or pairing with yogurt, you are going to love the sweet and crunchy flavor or this granola. It is definitely a must try.

How to make Almond Butter Granola

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
In a medium bowl, mix together oats, almonds, coconut chips, salt and cinnamon and set aside.
In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together almond butter, coconut oil, and honey until smooth. Remove from heat and add vanilla.
Pour almond butter mixture over dry ingredients, and stir until completely combined. Spread granola over a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake for 18-20 minutes (stirring once halfway through cooking), until coconut is toasted and granola starts to brown.
Remove from oven and let cool.
Transfer to a mixing bowl or storage container (will keep fresh for 1-2 weeks).

Storing and Other Tips

Storing granola is simple, and it lasts for about 2 weeks.

I usually put mine in an airtight container, but you could also put it in a ziploc bag.

Sometimes for holiday, I will make this for neighbors, and put it in a plastic bag, with ribbon around it.

Just as long as it doesn’t have a lot of open air, or is being exposed, it should stay fresh for about 2 weeks.

What can I put this granola on?

Yogurt. I love the combination of smooth and crunchy. I am a texture person, and I think it just goes so well together.

Coffee Cake. Have you ever tried putting granola on your coffee cake? Well you need to. Especially this Almond Butter Granola.

Smoothies. I love a good smoothie bowl. I am not much of an acai fan, but I love smoothies with granola on them.

A large bowl topped with raspberries. Almond Butter Granola and Sliced Bananas.
