Ingredients

3 cups whole oats or gluten free oats
1 cup pumpkin seeds
1 cup sliced almonds or walnuts or pecans, or a combination
½ cup shredded coconut
½ cup raisins or dried cranberries
2 tsp cinnamon you can also add pumpkin pie spice
½ cup canned pumpkin
½ cup pure maple syrup
¼ cup light oil canola oil, light olive oil, or refined coconut oil
¼ cup almond butter

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Grab a large mixing bowl and add the oats, pumpkin seeds, slivered almonds, shredded coconut, raisins, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, maple syrup, oil and almond butter. Whisk until combined.
Now, pour this mixture over the dry granola mixture. Mix with a spoon or spatula until all the granola is covered.
Pour the granola onto the prepared baking sheet and pat it down in a flat even layer using your spoon or spatula.
Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Then, turn off the oven and let the granola cool in the oven for 1-2 hours. This is key! Letting the granola sit helps make granola clusters, so don't skip this step. Once the granola has cooled break it up into clusters and enjoy!
