Pumpkin Granola
This granola is a great snack to keep handy in the pantry. Use this granola on top of
yogurt or grab a handful and chow down.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 1.25 cups raw pecans or sliced almonds
- ¼ cup pumpkin seeds (optional)
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 Tbs pumpkin pie spice
- 1 Tbs vanilla extract
- ¼ cup coconut or olive oil
- 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
- ¼ cup coconut or brown sugar
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
Tip: Get creative with this and make it your own. Add different spices
like nutmeg or cinnamon. Add different nuts if you would like. This is a
fun one to do with kids as well.
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 340 degrees.
2. Mix oats, nuts, seeds, sugar, spices and salt in large bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, combine oil, pumpkin, syrup and vanilla. Microwave
until oil is melted and combine.
4. Pour over dry ingredients and quickly mix with a wooden spoon.
5. Spread evenly onto two baking sheets and bake for 25-30 minutes,
stirring at the half-way point. Remove and allow to cool.
