A crunchy granola full of big clusters and crumble coconut. It is rich in chocolate thanks to the cacao powder and the chunks of Dark Raspberry Chocolate and studded with zesty fruit pieces of freeze-dried raspberries.

Prep Time:

Step 3
Pour in the cashew or almond butter, maple syrup and vanilla essence. Stir thoroughly to make sure the mixture is fully combined – you may want to use your hands.
