Categories     Breakfast

Time 26m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (use certified gluten-free oats for gluten-free granola)
1 1/2 cup raw nuts and/or seeds (I used 1 cup pecans and 1/2 cup pepitas)
1 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt (if you're using standard table salt, scale back to 3/4 teaspoon)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup melted coconut oil or olive oil
1/2 cup maple syrup or honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup dried fruit, chopped if large (I used dried cranberries)
Totally optional additional mix-ins: 1/2 cup chocolate chips or coconut flakes*

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, nuts and/or seeds, salt and cinnamon. Stir to blend.
  • Pour in the oil, maple syrup and/or honey and vanilla. Mix well, until every oat and nut is lightly coated. Pour the granola onto your prepared pan and use a large spoon to spread it in an even layer.
  • Bake until lightly golden, about 21 to 24 minutes, stirring halfway (for extra-clumpy granola, press the stirred granola down with your spatula to create a more even layer). The granola will further crisp up as it cools.
  • Let the granola cool completely, undisturbed (at least 45 minutes). Top with the dried fruit (and optional chocolate chips, if using). Break the granola into pieces with your hands if you want to retain big chunks, or stir it around with a spoon if you don't want extra-clumpy granola.
  • Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 weeks, or in a sealed freezer bag in the freezer for up to 3 months. The dried fruit can freeze solid, so let it warm to room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

PUMPKIN MAPLE PECAN GRANOLA



Pumpkin Maple Pecan Granola image

Simple, healthy granola that's perfect for fall! Just 9 ingredients, perfectly crunchy, and infused with tons of pumpkin flavor and fall spices.

Provided by Minimalist Baker

Categories     Breakfast     Snack

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups rolled oats ((gluten-free for GF eaters))
1 1/4 cups raw pecans
1/3 cup raw pepitas
3 Tbsp sugar
¼ tsp sea salt
3/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice ((I also added an extra dash cinnamon))
1/4 cup coconut or olive oil
1/3 cup maple syrup ((or sub agave or honey if not vegan))
1/3 cup pumpkin puree

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!

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin seeds: For the best flavor and texture, use raw, unsalted pumpkin seeds. If you can, buy organic pumpkin seeds to avoid pesticides and other chemicals.
  • Toast the pumpkin seeds before using them: Toasting the pumpkin seeds brings out their flavor and makes them more crunchy. You can toast them in a single layer on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant.
  • Use a variety of nuts and seeds: In addition to pumpkin seeds, this granola also contains almonds, pecans, and chia seeds. You can use other nuts and seeds that you like, such as walnuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, or flaxseeds.
  • Make sure the granola is completely cool before storing it: This will help to prevent the granola from clumping together. Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
  • Serve the granola with your favorite toppings: Granola is a versatile breakfast or snack that can be enjoyed with a variety of toppings. Some popular toppings include milk, yogurt, fruit, and honey.

Conclusion:

This sticky pumpkin seed granola is a delicious and healthy way to start your day or enjoy as a snack. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its combination of pumpkin seeds, nuts, seeds, and oats, this granola is a great source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats. Enjoy!
