This keto granola recipe has all the taste of Nutella in a healthy snack. It's an easy recipe to make and is a great low carb breakfast or snack.
Apart from the delicious taste, this chocolate hazelnut granola makes a great protein snack or breakfast at just under 10g protein per serving. No sugar, low carbs, all taste. What's not to love!
The best thing about this chocolate hazelnut granola for me is to enjoy it in a bowl with almond (or coconut) milk for breakfast. It makes the milk change to a chocolate colour and you are transported to a childhood breakfast!
What is keto granola?
Granola normally has oats in it, so to make it keto, the oats are omitted and extra seeds and nuts are used. Traditional granola can sneak sugar into it, even in the form of maple syrup. With this hazelnut granola recipe, a low carb brown sweetener is used instead.
How to make this keto vegan
Most low carb granola recipes can easily be made keto vegan With this recipe all you need to change to make it keto vegan is to omit the chocolate and replace it cocoa nibs. Voila!
Recipe Tips

This is a recipe that can be adapted to your own tastes. Keep the cocoa, hazelnuts and almond butter as the base and go free with other nuts and seeds! Add a spice or too such as cinnamon!
