I swapped it with maple syrup and although I haven't tasted it with honey to compare, I can truthfully say this was a HIT! Also chopped up a bar of dark chocolate in replace of the chips (partly a vegan swap, partly a Covid-19 pantry swap).... also DELICIOUS! Reply Trish Bozeman July 21, 2020 at 1:54 pm It would be great with maple syrup! 🙂 Reply Beth Hornback | Eat Within Your Means September 17, 2015 at 6:56 am Every so often I consider giving up coffee. And then I slap myself in the face and yell "WAKE UP, WOMAN! STOP THIS CRAZINESS!" It feels good to get that out of my system. I am going to make some coffee now, and I'm very sad that I don't have this granola already made to go along with it. Yes, I want coffee granola with my coffee. On some coffee ice cream. Oh dear. Reply Patricia Bozeman September 17, 2015 at 10:33 am Oooooh coffee ice cream! The BEST! You've got my brain mojo working now Beth! Coffee parfaits, coffee sundaes..... coffee milkshakes. OMG. Reply Lorena September 16, 2015 at 6:55 pm I hear you. When someone says "good morning" the only thing I can think of is "what good is there in mornings" until I remember "oh, yahhh, coffeeeeeee" Absolutely love the idea of having more coffee for my coffee breakfast. You might have just managed to make me want to eat breakfast and not only sip my coffee!!! Love your recipe! Reply Patricia Bozeman September 17, 2015 at 10:32 am Thanks Lorena! You are looking at a girl who can sleep until noon! Coffee totally saves my butt every morning. 🙂 Reply Lorena September 17, 2015 at 6:21 pm before having kids I used to sleep in on the weekend until 3 pm sometimes (not only after party nights, also when going to bed early-ish), the early wake-ups now are KILLING me. It is probably the single most awful part about parenting for me EVER! Coffee doesn't only save my butt but everyone's whose around me that early in the day :S Reply spabettie September 16, 2015 at 6:30 pm not a snob? I like it how I like it, though 😉 we either do French press or stovetop espresso maker. Mmm. this looks SO good - I love the cashews! Reply Patricia Bozeman September 17, 2015 at 10:31 am Thank you! Reply Kathryn @ FoodieGirlChicago June 11, 2015 at 6:59 pm I am a granola addict and love the idea of chocolate AND coffee in granola - so unique. This one is on my must make list!!

Reply Patricia Bozeman June 11, 2015 at 9:25 am Thanks Robin! Reply Kate June 10, 2015 at 11:24 am Seriously, this biggest bummer about homemade granola is that I always want it in the summer which equals oven time. Blech. Though at least the sweaty evening is made up for with delicious, delicious granola. Pinned this one to make soon! Reply Patricia Bozeman June 10, 2015 at 2:46 pm Thank you Kate! It's usually not so hot around here. Hope it cools down soon! Reply
