Pumpkin spice is everywhere!

Granola is so dang versatile. It simply goes with everything! You can eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack and feel amazing because there is zero prep time!
Some common places and times where you can eat granola:
- Instead of cereal for breakfast with almond milk.
- At the office as a mid-morning snack.
- During commute…just keep a zip log back in your purse to avoid buying that pastry by the subway stop that’s been strategically placed by the shop owner.
- To top off your dairy-free cashew yogurt.
- As an added crunch in chia pudding.
- In a salad for lunch…because it’s all about that crunch 😉
- Give it to your nephew/niece on a playground to get them to stop crying.
- Pre-workout.
- Post-workout.
Can you think of other occasions/use cases for granola? Let me know in the comments below.
If you’ve never made granola at home – have no fear! It’s easy! I never understood why granola costs so much at the store. You can make two 16 ounce mason jars full of granola for about 5 dollars total. Now, that’s a deal.
Plus, the sense of accomplishment you’ll get is priceless. Trust me!
There are three main parts to making granola:
- Dry ingredients. These are your oats, nuts, and seeds.
- Wet ingredients. Sweeteners, oils. Something that would bind the dry ingredients together.
- Spices. Ohh la la. You can go wild here.
We are making Pumpkin Spice Granola so while you could substitute dry and wet ingredients in this recipe with things you love, pumpkin spice is non-negotiable.
