If you love peanut butter, you will adore this easy skillet granola made without being baked, coated in peanut butter and studded with chocolate chips.
I’ve made a few varieties of skillet granola now. First was the Honey Roasted Almond and then I shared the Coconut Chip version on my friend Katie’s blog, Mom to Mom Nutrition. I love that it’s ready in 5-minutes because I always burn it when I try to bake it in the oven. The girls like to pick their favorite mix-ins and switch up the flavor each time.
Since we’re such huge fans of peanut butter, this is our favorite flavor. You can easily substitute cashew or almond butter too! We actually use a powdered version of peanut butter that we find at Costco for this. It’s also great to have on hand for smoothies. If you price it out, it’s actually cheaper to use for recipes like that–of course we stick to the jarred PB for sandwiches and other treats.
If there are any ingredients you don’t like, just swap them out! Coconut can easily be left out or you could sub craisins or dried apples for the raisins. Banana chips would be fab too! You always want to stick to the rolled oats, though. Quick oats give it a different texture…I’ve made that mistake before!
