Fuel Your Day the Gourmet Way: Coffee Granola Bars with Xaymaca Espresso

Busy mornings call for smart choices—and smart coffee lovers know that convenience doesn’t have to compromise flavor. These Coffee Granola Bars, infused with the smooth intensity of Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee, are the perfect blend of energy, nourishment, and indulgence. Whether you're powering through your commute, prepping for a workout, or heading into a meeting, these bars are your delicious, caffeinated secret weapon.

Blue Mountain Beans in Every Bite

The star of this recipe is our Xaymaca Coffee, brewed from 100% Jamaica Blue Mountain beans, known for their unparalleled smoothness and mild, complex flavor. Unlike overly bitter or acidic roasts, Blue Mountain coffee introduces a subtle richness that enhances the natural sweetness of oats, honey, and chocolate—resulting in a bar that's both satisfying and sophisticated.

Recipe: Coffee Granola Bars with Blue Mountain Elegance

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • ½ cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans)
  • ½ cup honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ cup brewed Xaymaca Coffee
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Optional Add-ins:

  • Seeds (chia, sunflower, flax)
  • Dried fruit (cranberries, dates, raisins)

Directions:

  1. Mix the dry base: In a large bowl, combine oats, chopped nuts, and chocolate chips.
  2. Heat the wet ingredients: In a small saucepan, warm the honey (or maple syrup), brewed Xaymaca Coffee, and vanilla extract over low heat. Stir gently until fully blended and fragrant.
  3. Combine and press: Pour the warm liquid mixture over the oats and stir thoroughly until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Set the bars: Line a baking dish with parchment paper. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan, using the back of a spoon or spatula.
  5. Chill and enjoy: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm. Slice into bars and store in an airtight container for grab-and-go energy throughout the week.
