A delicious pumpkin spice granola loaded with oats, nuts, maple syrup and cranberries and then lightly toasted in the oven.

Pumpkin spice granola has been a household favorite for years now. In fact, Kim’s been making it for almost a decade.

It’s become something of a tradition for Kim to bake up this snack as soon as the temperatures start to cool.

We originally shared the recipe almost 3 years ago and it’s popular from September through February.

There are only 7 ingredients needed to prepare this snack. Most of which can be easily found in the baking aisle of your local supermarket.

Kim and I chose to use our homemade pumpkin pie spice. Feel free to use that or a store-bought version, it’s up to you. Shall we get started?

How do I make pumpkin spice granola?

First, pre-heat your oven to 225° F.

After that, in a large mixing bowl combine the oats, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, walnuts, pumpkin pie spice, and maple syrup.

The dried cranberries won’t be added until the end.

Next, stir the ingredients. Be sure to break apart large clusters of nuts and oats. Otherwise, the pumpkin spice granola will not cook evenly.

If you prefer a softer granola, then try our homemade granola bars instead. They’re made with chocolate chips and honey.

Now, once you have the ingredients combined, spray a sheet pan with non-stick cooing spray.

Afterward, bake the granola in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove it from the oven, flip the ingredients, and place the pan back into the oven for another 10 minutes.

After that, turn off the heat, remove the sheet pan from oven and let it cool for about 5-minuets.

Last, toss the cranberries with the toasted granola and serve. Alternatively, you can let it cool completely and store it for later.

That’s it, your pumpkin spice granola is done! Kim and I hope you enjoy it and wish you all the best 🙂

Recipe Tips:

• You can make this treat in advance and store it in decorative mason jars. Give it to family or friends as a homemade gift this holiday season.
• The granola will last for about a week when stored in an airtight container at room temperature.
• If you want to change some of the nuts or fruit, you can. However, just keep in mind that any dried fruit must be added after the granola has toasted. Otherwise, the fruit will be dried out and inedible.
