Homemade Pumpkin Granola Recipes

FAVORITE PUMPKIN GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix the dry ingredients together (oats, almonds, pistachios, coconut). Whisk the wet ingredients and spices together (pumpkin, olive oil, maple syrup, salt, cinnamon). Pour wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
• Spread the granola into a large nonstick jelly roll pan or cake pan - I do this on two separate pans or in two batches. Bake for 15 minutes; stir; bake for another 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest - it should start to crisp up.
• Store in a plastic zip-top bag for a week or so. Serve with granola, fruit, or just with good ol' milk.

PUMPKIN SEED GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix pumpkin seeds, oats, pumpkin puree, maple-flavored syrup, coconut, butter, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl until well combined. Spread mixture evenly over the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, until desired crispness is reached, 30 to 45 minutes.

CRUNCHY PUMPKIN PIE GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Coat 2 baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, rolled oats, almonds, and pecans in a large bowl. Mix the applesauce, honey, and vanilla in a separate large bowl. Stir the oat mixture into the applesauce mixture, until granola begins to gather in clusters. Spoon granola evenly onto prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in preheated oven, stirring every 20 minutes, until lightly browned and crispy, about 1 hour.
• Remove from oven; cool to room temperature. Stir in raisins and cranberries; store in an airtight container.
