Pumpkin Pie Granola

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 F.

Step 2

To a large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, tahini, vanilla, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and salt. Stir together until well incorporated.

Step 3

Stir in the oats, pecans, and pumpkin seeds. Don’t add the dates just yet – we will add them after baking.

Step 4

Thinly spread the granola mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a reusable silicone mat.

Step 5

Bake on the bottom rack of the oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping half way through.

Step 6

When the granola is gold brown and crispy, remove it from the oven and sprinkle on the chopped dates.

Step 7

Let the granola cool completely before enjoying! It will firm up considerably as it cools. Store in an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks.
