Directions

Step 1 

Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

Step 2 

In a large bowl, combine the maple syrup, oil, cocoa powder, and mashed banana. Mix until well combined.

Step 3 

Add the oats, seeds, and hemp hearts to the wet ingredients and stir until everything has been moistened.

Step 4 

Empty mixture onto the baking sheet and gently distribute evenly. Do not press the mixture into the baking sheet.

Step 5 

Bake for 20 minutes. Stir granola gently to break up larger pieces and redistribute the oats. Bake for another 15 to 20 minutes or until the granola feels dry.

Step 6 

Allow to cool completely before enjoying with milk or yogurt and your favourite fruit!
