Chocolate Coconut Granola {Grain-Free}

• 1 cup sliced almonds
• 1 cup pumpkin seeds
• 1/2 cup walnuts
• 1/2 cup coconut chips
• 1/4 cup extra virgin coconut oil
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1/3 cup cocoa powder
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup coconut chips

1. Heat oven to 275. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small sauce pan, heat coconut oil over low heat until melted. Add the maple syrup, cocoa powder, salt and cinnamon and whisk until smooth. Remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract.
3. In a medium-sized bowl, stir together the almonds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts and 1/2 cup of coconut chips. Slowly pour the chocolate mixture over top, stirring to coat everything evenly.
4. Pour nut mixture onto the parchment paper and place in the oven for about 40 minutes. Check every so often to make sure the nuts aren't burning.
5. Turn oven off, but leave the granola in the oven for another 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Break apart and add in the 1/4 cup of coconut chips. Store in an airtight container.
