There’s something so satisfying about making your own granola – especially when you can make it under 15 minutes in an air fryer (not having to preheat the oven, winner!). This recipe is a delicious, simple and healthy combination of oats, nut butter, chocolate and banana to create a batch of chunky goodness that can be enjoyed at any time of day. You can double the batch if you want, and keep in an airtight container. Mix up how you serve it; from enjoying with fruit and yogurt to sprinkling on top of a protein pudding, or just straight from the tub!
Ingredients:
- 1 banana
- 40g oats
- 1 scoop chocolate or vanilla protein powder (can be vegan)
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon nut butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or nut butter
- 1-2 tablespoons oat milk
- 40g dark chocolate chunks (can be vegan)
Make it!
- Mash the banana then mix in the other ingredients besides the chocolate chunks.
- Line an air fryer tray with greaseproof paper then spread over the mixture. Bake at 180C for 4 minutes then stir well. Cook for a further 2 minutes.
- Scatter over the chocolate chunks and mix in. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the chocolate has melted. Allow to cool a little so big chunks form.
- Serve with natural / coconut yogurt, berries, almonds and a generous helping of the granola!
