Growing up I thought I didn’t like granola, because when my mother made homemade granola she always put raisins in it and I have always detested raisins. Detested. I didn’t like trail mix for the same reason. But back to the granola. It was a happy day when I discovered that granola didn’t necessarily have to have raisins. I’m far too much of an eat-on-the-go person to stop and pour myself a bowl of granola with almond milk, thus I’m very much a fan of greek yogurt cups. So quick, so portable, so perfect for layering on lots and lots of easy homemade granola (minus icky shriveled raisins). It’s definitely my average every day breakfast meal of choice. Unless I’m making waffles. or pancakes. or french toast. Those fall into a completely different breakfast category. But for the average wednesday morning, you can pretty safely bet I’m eating greek yogurt and homemade granola. I started making my homemade granola last year and have never looked back since. It’s almost always cheaper than buying granola from the store, not to mention often healthier and yummier than most of the store-bought granolas I’ve tried. This cinnamon pumpkin granola recipe is easy peasy and perfect for putting a little Fall flare into your breakfast routine.
What people are saying about this Cinnamon Pumpkin Granola
“Hi Tiffany! I just got done following this recipe and I am currently eating some with unsweetened almond milk poured over the top. It is so yummy! The amount of spice is perfect and I love the fact that it has the pumpkin flavor! The only thing I did differently was put my nuts and coconut flakes in the processor so it wouldn’t be as chunky and I replaced the honey with half maple syrup and half lite corn syrup (so it wouldn’t be too sweet) and I love it! I Thank you for a yummy breakfast and my 1st granola go-to!” – Alaia
