Instructions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit
In a mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, vanilla and pinch of salt.
Once well mixed, add in the remaining ingredients except dried cranberries
Add mixture to a silicone baking sheet or parchment paper and spread in an even layer **if cooking straight on the baking sheet or aluminum foil, spray with oil to prevent sticking
Bake at 300 degrees for 35 minutes
Take the granola out of the oven but allow to cool for at least 10 more minutes, as the granola will continue the baking process. Add the dried cranberries around the top now.
Once cooled, use a spatula or your hands to lightly break into desired piece sizes. Mix in dried cranberries if not already done.
Notes
if making gluten free, make sure you use certified gluten free oats
if making with no added sugar, use date syrup as a natural sweetener and liquid sugar
