This pumpkin spice granola is really easy to whip up – it’s the perfect breakfast for fall!
Oh boy, do I have a granola recipe for you today!
Pumpkin spice granola. Why haven’t I made this before? It’s so good, and so easy, and is the perfect fall breakfast. I have been eating this with coconut milk in the morning, and Baby Bee is eating this by the handful, so between the two of us, this granola is disappearing very quickly.
This pumpkin spice granola is very easy to make, and your house will smell amazing while you’re baking it! It’s a variation on my favorite granola recipe – and the three main ingredients are the same: oats, maple syrup, and vegan buttery spread.
I just added some pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spices, and pumpkin seeds, and boom! This granola is ready for fall.
Make sure you get the pure pumpkin puree, and not the pie filling. We don’t want the added sugar and other ingredients. You can use coconut oil or regular butter in place of the vegan buttery spread if you prefer. If you can eat nuts, go ahead and add some! I love the pumpkin seeds in this granola, but nuts would also be good.
This pumpkin spice granola recipe is:
- vegan, gluten free, and nut free
- perfect on top of yogurt
- a delicious snack
