Sweet and Salty Chocolate Granola

Every so often, I develop a recipe that my team just goes crazy for - and I can tell you, everyone on set was sneaking handfuls of this addicting granola. Olive oil adds such a great and interesting flavor to the otherwise sweet granola, and while it all roasts in the oven, it develops a really amazing flavor with the maple syrup. Adding enough salt is the key here, too - it makes this seriously addicting and delicious!

Make sure you let the granola cool off completely before folding in chocolate chips - if you're impatient, like I can sometimes be, you can stick it in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes to ensure it's completely cooled down. If you don't let it cool, you'll get melty chocolate all over the granola... which isn't necessarily bad by any means, but it would be a little messy!
