Sticky Pumpkin Seed Granola Recipes

PUMPKIN GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 300 F.
• In a large bowl stir together all ingredients until evenly combined.
• Place mixture on a large baking sheet and bake for 30 - 45 minutes until crisped and browned to your liking. Toss once halfway through to ensure even baking.
• After baking you can sprinkle the optional cranberries over the granola. Let granola cool to room temperature on the baking sheet. Don't stir it while warm to let larger clusters form.
• Transfer the cooled granola to an airtight storage container.

HOMEMADE PUMPKIN GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a sheet tray with a silicone baking mat, or spray generously with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, mix together all the ingredients until well combined. Spread the granola out into an even layer on the prepared sheet tray.
• Bake the granola for 15 minutes, then stir the granola gently and return to the oven for 15-20 more minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool at room temperature. As the granola starts to cool, it will dry out a bit more and crisp up nicely.
• Stored in an airtight container, this granola will usually last a few months.

PUMPKIN MAPLE PECAN GRANOLA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 340 degrees F (171 C).
• Mix the oats, nuts, seeds, spices, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl.
• In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, warm the coconut oil, maple syrup, and pumpkin puree and whisk. Pour over the dry ingredients and quickly mix with a wooden spoon.
• Spread the mixture evenly onto two baking sheets (or bake in two batches // adjust if altering batch size) and bake for 23-33 minutes, stirring a bit near the halfway point. If you prefer chunkier granola, don't stir as it breaks up the clusters. Instead, just rotate the pans at the halfway point to ensure even cooking.
• Once the granola is golden brown (usually about 25 minutes), remove from oven and let cool completely. It will crisp up as it cools.
• Transfer to an airtight container. Should keep for a couple weeks. Enjoy with almond milk, dairy-free yogurt, or on top of oats!

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.
