Notice that there is not any oil in this granola! It's also SO much less expensive to make your own granola rather than buying store-bought (and has MUCH less sugar in it!) This one has this warm, vanilla, pumpkin-spicy flavor that is perfect for the fall. Store in an airtight container and use one-the-go! This came from Obesity Help. I have not tried this, just posting for safe keeping. Ingredients:
2/3 cup canned pumpkin puree |
2 tablespoons 1% low-fat milk or 2 tablespoons almond milk |
1/2 cup sugar-free maple syrup |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
3 1/2 cups whole rolled oats |
1/2 cup sliced almonds |
1/2 cup pepitas (or walnuts, pecans, or pistachios) |
1/3 cup stevia, in the raw or 1/3 cup splenda sugar substitute |
1/2 cup golden raisin (optional) |
Directions:
1. 1.) In a medium bowl, mix: pumpkin, milk, sugar-free maple syrup, vanilla, and seasonings. Whisk together well.
2. 2.) Add oats, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and stevia. Mix until oats and nuts are evenly coated.
3. 3.) Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Spread granola out in a thin layer over the baking sheet. Bake at 275 degrees F for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cook a little longer for more crunchy granola, or a little shorter for chewy granola. Stir in raisins after granola comes out of oven. Keep in airtight container!
