Noosa Pumpkin Granola Parfait.

Noosa Pumpkin Yogurt Parfait with Homemade Pumpkin Granola.Unless you’ve been living under a rock it should come as no surprise that we’re officially deep into the gloriousness that is pumpkin season and while you won’t find me with a PSL in hand, I’ve been finding plenty of other ways to celebrate. My latest favorie? Pumpkin noosa yoghurt. Guys… it’s SO GOOD. Like there’s one left in our fridge and I swear if B eats it he’s getting coal for Christmas. It’s a perfect blend of tart and sweet with a subtle pumpkin flavor that’s not too over-the-top (I’m looking right at you, PSL…)

While I’ve been enjoying plenty of Pumpkin noosa on its own I decided to take my pumpkin celebrations to the next level and whip up a batch of Lauren’s Pumpkin Spice Granola which literally had me drooling as I read her blog post a few weeks ago. This was my first foray into the world of granola making and I really have no idea why it took me so long – it was so simple and turned out amazing! How to whip up your own Pumpkin Spice Granola:

Ingredients:

  • 4 c. rolled oats
  • 1/2 c. chopped raw pecans
  • 1/4 c. ground flax seeds
  • 4 tsp. cinnamon
  • 3 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 c. pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 c. maple syrup
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 c. flour
  • 1/4 c. coconut oil
  • 1/2 c. light brown sugar
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract

How to Make:

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees
  2. Combine cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, salt, coconut oil and light brown sugar in a small saucepan and heat over low-medium heat for a few minutes, stirring regularly, until sugar is dissolved and mixture is thoroughly combined
  3. In a separate bowl, add flour, oats, flax seeds and pecans and mix. Slowly stir in wet ingredients + vanilla extract and mix with hands until entire dry mixture is coated with wet ingredients
  4. Spread mixture onto a baking sheet in an even layer and bake for 45 minutes, mixing every 15 minutes to prevent burning
  5. Remove from oven and let cool, storing in an air-tight container once granola has cooled to preserve freshness
