Ingredients
Scale
For the Chocolate Layer:
- 1½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
For the Granola Layer:
- ½ cup peanut butter (or nut butter of choice)
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 cups granola (store bought or homemade)
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seed
- 2 tablespoons hemp seed
For the Nut Butter Layer:
- ¾ cup peanut butter (or nut butter of choice)
- Chopped nuts of choice
- Flaky sea salt
Instructions
For the Chocolate Layer:
- Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- Place the chocolate and coconut oil in a heat-safe bowl and microwave in 15-second increments until melted, stirring after each session.
- Spoon roughly 1 tablespoon of the melted chocoalte into each muffin cup.
- Set aside.
For the Granola Layer:
- In a medium saucepan, heat together the peanut butter and honey until gently simmering. Whisk the mixture constantly so it smooths out.
- Place the granola, oats, flax, and hemp seeds in a large bowl and carefully pour the hot peanut butter mixture over top. Stir quickly to evenly coat everything in the peanut butter.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly so that you can handle it without burning yourself; you still want it to be warm so it’s easy to shape.
- Using a cookie scoop, scoop out portions of the granola mixture and place it in the chocolate-filled muffin liners. Press down slightly so the two layers adhere.
For the Nut Butter Layer:
- Warm the nut butter so it easy to work with (I do this in the microwave for about 20 seconds).
- Spoon the nut butter on top of the granola layer in the muffin tins.
- Sprinkle with chopped nuts and flaky sea salt.
- Place the entire muffin tin in the freezer to set, about 10-15 minutes. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.
NOTES:
- I tested these with peanut butter and cashew butter, and both were DELICIOUS. You can use almond butter or any other nut butter you prefer! I recommend creamy over crunchy nut butters for this recipe.
- These keep best when stored in the fridge. They’ll last in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple weeks.
