Another Reason to Love Breakfast: Chocolate Hazelnut Granola

 Chocolate Hazelnut Granola

Inspired by Nigella Lawson, I was craving the chocolate peanut granola. However I did not want peanuts, so I decided to use her influence and make my own.

• 200g or 1.5 cups, heaped rolled oats 
• 60g or 1/2 cup dates, chopped
• 60g or 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
• 60g or 1/2 cup almonds, chopped coarsely
• 100g or 1 cup, heaped hazelnuts, chopped coarsely
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 
• 4 Tbsp good quality cocoa powder
• 60g or 1/2 cup molasses
• 4 Tbsp maple syrup
• 3 Tbsp jam/apple sauce (I used cloudberry jam, just because I had it in the fridge)
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 2 Tbsp vegetable oil 

Preheat 350
Mix everything together, spread on tray, Bake 45 minutes.  Let it cool once out of the oven. Break into chunks and store in airtight container.
