Preparation Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl: rolled oats, sliced almonds, pistachios, and flaked coconut.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients and spices: pumpkin puree, olive oil, maple syrup, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir well until everything is evenly coated.
- Spread the granola evenly in one or two large nonstick pans or jelly roll pans for even baking.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then stir the granola to ensure even cooking. Bake for another 15 minutes until crisp and golden brown.
- Remove from oven and allow the granola to cool completely; it will crisp up further as it cools.
- Store in an airtight container or zip-top bag for up to one week. Serve with milk, yogurt, or enjoy as a snack.
