Instructions

  • using a food processor, pulse your seeds, nuts, coconut, cinnamon and nutmeg all together until chopped and mixed, getting into a crumbly territory.
  • now, you can remove the blade from the food processor and mix in the pumpkin puree, honey, and dates.
  • spread the granola mixture across a parchment paper-lined baking tray, flattening it with a spatula as needed until it reaches the edges of the tray.
  • bake in a preheated oven at 330 for 25-30 minutes. remove from the oven and flip the granola in large chunks, baking for another 10-15 minutes until desired 'done-ness.' (i like mine extra crispy).
  • remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before adding the raisins.
  • store the granola in airtight glass jars in the fridge or freezer for longevity and optimal freshness.
