Preheat the oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.

GRANOLA

Combine the rolled oats, raw almond halves, unsweetened coconut flakes, cocoa powder, salt, and half of the turbinado sugar in a large mixing bowl.

LIQUID MIX

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.

GRANOLA

Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients. Mix well so everything is evenly coated.

BAKING

Spread the granola mixture onto two large jelly roll pans in an even layer.

Bake for 50 minutes total, stopping halfway through to shake or stir the granola to ensure even baking.

COATING

After baking, evenly sprinkle the chocolate chips over the granola. Return the granola to the oven for 5-10 minutes until the chocolate chips have softened.

Sprinkle the remaining turbinado sugar and a pinch of sea salt over the chocolate chips.

STORAGE

Allow the granola to stand for one to two hours until cooled.

Once cooled, gently transfer the granola into airtight containers or jars. If transferring while the chocolate chips are still soft, they will melt into the clusters, creating a wonderfully rich texture once cooled.
