Hey there, I feel like I’ve fallen a little behind with my blog posts as my new freelancing life is amazing, but it’s trickier to manage timings, i.e. if a job comes in you need to jump on it.
From the quietest first few weeks, it’s now gone crazy, and I’m happily juggling lots of things again. Recipes everywhere!
This is actually an old recipe which I developed ages ago, and I’m thrilled to have made this delicious chocolate and banana granola again, I mean, who wouldn’t?
I’m in love with the flavour combination – raw cacao, chunky almonds and sweet bananas are seriously good! And the granola is super crunchy because of the buckwheat – happy days!
As usual, it’s vegan and no refined sugars, but it’s packed with seeds, coconut, almonds, oats, spices and raw cacao. Chocolatey, but definitely not too chocolaty.
Be warned, this stuff is addictive and makes a perfect little ‘nibble upon snack’ when you happen to pass them in the kitchen!
And super delicious with almond milk or coconut yogurt, and topped with some berries.
Enjoy, love Niki xx

I like your recipe. Like the idea of adding the buckwheat groats but I am a bit confused. Don’t you pre-cook the groats? Won’t they be rock hard? Thanks.
