Ingredients
2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
3 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons melted salted butter
Nonstick baking spray, for the baking tray
1 cup coconut flakes
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- To a large bowl add the oats, chopped pecans, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds and 2 tablespoons of the pumpkin pie spice. To a medium microwave-safe bowl, add the maple syrup, brown sugar and butter. Microwave for 20 to 40 seconds until the sugar has dissolved. Pour the butter mixture over the oats and mix. Sprinkle the granola onto a lightly greased baking tray, spread into an even layer and bake in the oven for 8 minutes, or until the nuts are lightly toasted. Add the coconut flakes and toss to combine. Return to the oven until everything is toasted and golden, another 3 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice, then allow to cool completely, 1 hour. Enjoy, storing what’s left in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
