Ingredients

• 6 cups rolled oats
• 1 heaping cup sliced almonds
• 1 heaping cup pistachios (or other nuts)
• 1 heaping cup unsweetened flaked coconut
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1 cup olive oil
• 1 cup maple syrup
• 2-3 teaspoons salt (see notes)
• 1-2 teaspoons cinnamon

Directions

1. Prep the Pumpkin Granola: 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.
2. Bake the Pumpkin Granola: 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.
3. Eat and love: Store in a plastic zip-top bag for a week or so. Serve with granola, fruit, or just with good ol’ milk.
