Pumpkin Spiced Granola
Ingredients
- 4 C old fashioned rolled oats
- 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/3 C brown sugar
- 1/2 C pumpkin puree
- 1/4 C maple syrup
- 2 tbsp oil
- 3/4 C pecans halves or roughly chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- Mix together all ingredients except the pecans. When thoroughly mixed, pour mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet and spread evenly to the edges.
- Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, add the pecans and stir. Spread out evenly on the baking sheet again and return to the oven for 10 more minutes.
- When the 10 minutes is up, if needed, stir the granola and return to the oven for 5-10 more minutes until done. Remove from the oven, cool completely and store in an airtight container.
Notes
Toasted pepitas and dried cranberries would be awesome additions to this granola.
If your baking sheet is dark around the edges be careful the granola doesn’t burn there, maybe even stirring more frequently.
