Gluten-free chocolate chip granola

Here's a quick and easy gluten-free granola recipe, in case you don't have a gazillion dollars to buy those little pouches of ready made stuff every week.

4 cups gluten free quick cook oats (I use Bob's Red Mill brand)
1/2 cup melted coconut oil
1/4 cup flax seeds
1 cup shredded coconut
2-3 tablespoons maple syrup
3/4-1 cup chocolate chips

Mix all the ingredients (except the maple syrup) together. Make sure all your ingredients are wet, moist but not sopping. If you need more liquid add the maple syrup. Put a piece of parchment paper on your cookie sheet. Spread the granola mixture onto the cookie sheet, spreading out as much as you can. Bake at 350º for 20-25 minutes or until oats and coconut flakes are brown. Let cool for five minutes then mix your granola a little to spread the melted chocolate around. Let it cool fully before placing in a storage container. I'm honestly not sure how long this mixture is good for because it never lasts more than a week around here!

Enjoy from #sonotabaker!

Cheers!
