Lentil Cocoa Granola

This delicious lentil cocoa granola is inspired by the Lentil Cacao Crunchy from Migros. Because it contains lentils, it is particularly rich in protein and more filling. The cacao nibs give it a delicious taste and thanks to the maple syrup it is sweetened in a healthy way. Unlike the inspiration source, this recipe is oil-free. If you use gluten-free rolled oats, it’s even gluten-free. All in all, a healthy breakfast bomb. Bon appetit!
