Pumpkin Granola

Ingredients

• 3 cups rolled oats
• 1 cup pecans (chopped)
• 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1/3 cup pumpkin purée
• 1/4 cup coconut oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350 °F and grease a baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange your oven racks so that one is towards the bottom and one is towards the top.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, stir together the rolled oats, pecans, pumpkin seeds, pumpkin pie spice and sea salt.

3. 3

   Add in the maple syrup, pumpkin puree and melted coconut oil and stir everything together until well combined.

4. 4

   Pour the mixture onto your greased baking dish and spread it out into an even, thin layer. Press it down with a spatula to make sure the mixture is sticking together.

5. 5

   Bake the granola for about 10 minutes on the top rack of your oven. Then, without stirring the granola, move it to the bottom rack to bake for another 10-15 minutes or until slightly golden brown.

6. 6

   Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool completely* before breaking it into clusters and storing it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month.
