Chocolate Peanut Butter Granola

2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups oats
1/2 cup coconut
1 cup nuts (almonds or pecans work well)
1 cup chocolate chip

1. Melt butter, peanut butter, and honey together. Stir in vanilla.
2. Combine the oats with the coconut and pour peanut butter mixture over oats and toss until well combined.
3. Bake on a baking sheet for 10 minutes at 350 degrees.
4. While oats are still hot pour over chocolate chips. The warmth of the oats should melt the chocolate. Stir to incorporate melted chocolate.
5. Allow to cool and store in a sealed container.
Yum-O!

This is a family favorite that we make often and always makes me think of my mom and our time in California!
