Ideas for pumpkin granola:
My favorite way to eat granola is with Greek yogurt. YUM! This is a delicious topping with yogurt and such a tasty snack or breakfast.
My kids like to eat it straight out of the bowl. It is that good!
This recipe will make 3 cups, so I highly recommend you doubling and even tripling the batch so you have extras to last you all week long.
It is so delicious and you will want extras to enjoy all week. Trust me. 🙂 So go ahead and just double or triple the batch.
The pumpkin granola does not take anymore time to make extra because you already have all the ingredients and supplies out. Give it a try!
Pumpkin granola ingredients:
- rolled oats
- maple syrup
- pumpkin puree
- vegetable oil
- pumpkin pie spice
- salt
- pecans (optional)
- almonds (optional)
- pumpkin seeds (optional)
How to make pumpkin granola:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Mix together the oats, maple syrup, pumpkin, oil, spice and salt.
Spread mixture out on a non-stick baking surface in a thin layer. Bake for 15 minutes.
Break up the oats and bake for another 10 minutes.
Cool completely.
Once cooled, stir in the nuts and pumpkin seeds. Store in an air tight container and enjoy!
All you had to do is mix the basic ingredients and bake.
Note:
Now, I highly recommend using a baking mat on your cookie sheet. It will make baking almost anything so much easier. It prevents any of your food from sticking to the pan, which really helps the clean up.
Less clean up is always a good idea. 🙂
