  • Start your day off right with this healthy alternative that hits all the right cravings.
  • Ingredients
  • For the Granola
  • 2 Tbs and 2 tsp of organic extra virgin coconut oil
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 Tbs vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ¾ tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup chopped pecans
  • ½ cup shelled pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • For the parfait
  • ½ cup of pureed pumpkin
  • 2 tsp pure maple syrup (or more, if desired)
  • ½ tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 5.3oz container vanilla Greek yogurt
  • granola to taste
  • Instructions
  • For the granola
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • In a small saucepan over low flame, heat the coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, salt, and pumpkin pie spice, stirring constantly until salt and maple syrup have dissolved. Set aside.
  • In a very large bowl, combine the oats and nuts. Drizzle the oil/syrup mixture over the oats and nuts, and stir until completely coated.
  • Spread the mixture evenly over 2 large baking sheets lined with parchment paper or silpats, and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the sheets from the oven. Use a spatula to mix the oats, and re-spread them out evenly. Return the sheets to the oven, and alternate the sheet from the top and bottom racks. Bake for another 10 minutes.
  • Repeat the previous step every 10 minutes, until oats have reached desired level of browning (about 20-30 minutes).
  • Remove sheets from the oven, and cool. Store in an airtight container.
  • For the parfait
  • In a bowl, combine pumpkin, syrup, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir to combine.
  • In a small glass, bowl, or other serving dish, layer pumpkin, yogurt, and granola. Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for later.
  • Notes
  • *The granola recipe makes quite a bit of granola. It also tastes great on a nice scoop of ice cream, or even as a crunchy salad topper.
  • *If salted granola is not your thing, feel free to reduce the amount of salt by half.
  • *For a sweeter, more indulgent treat, substitute whipped cream for the yogurt.
