How to Make Easy Pumpkin Granola

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line two jelly roll pans with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1/4 cup melted coconut oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: 3 cups rolled oats, 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts, 1/2 cup shredded coconut, 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds, 1/4 cup dried cranberries, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Whisk to combine thoroughly.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until evenly moistened. Let the mixture sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the oats to absorb the liquid.
  5. Spread the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, stirring halfway through for even baking.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheets. The granola will crisp up as it cools.
  8. Once completely cool, break the granola into smaller clusters and store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
