Ingredients

2 Large Eggland’s Best Eggs, egg whites, lightly beaten until frothy (or Eggland's Best Liquid Egg Whites)

1/2 cup hazelnuts

½ cup walnuts

1/2 cup wheat germ

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp. salt

2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

¼ cup chia seeds

½ cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed

1 cup dried cranberries

1/2 cup pecans, chopped

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces

1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed

1/2 cup all-natural peanut butter

1/3 cup maple syrup

½ cup dark chocolate

1 teaspoon coconut oil

Preparation

  1. In a food processor, combine the hazelnuts, walnuts, wheat germ, cinnamon, and salt and pulse just until finely ground, about 20 short pulses. Transfer to a bowl, add the oats,chia seeds, quinoa, cranberries, and pecans, and stir to combine.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, peanut butter, and maple syrup over medium heat, bring to a simmer, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Pour the peanut butter mixture evenly over the oat mixture, stir to combine, and let cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the egg whites to the granola mixture and stir well. Using a cookie scoop, scroop our rounds of the mixture and place evenly onto a prepared parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake until golden brown around the edges and no longer sticky to the touch, 20–25 minutes. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
  4. In a small bowl, microwave chocolate and coconut oil until smooth. Drizzle over cooled granola balls.
