A crunchy, homemade granola infused with real pumpkin puree and warm autumn spices, perfect for breakfast or snacking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1/4 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries or raisins (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, and pumpkin seeds.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.
  5. Spread the granola mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the granola is golden brown and dry.
  7. Let the granola cool completely on the baking sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.
  8. Once cooled, stir in the dried cranberries or raisins, if using.
  9. Break apart any large clusters. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.

Notes

  • For larger clusters, press the granola down firmly on the baking sheet before baking.
  • Adjust the spices to your preference. Add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger for extra warmth.
  • This granola is delicious served with yogurt, milk, or as a topping for smoothie bowls.
