Annessa RD Pumpkin Spice Granola - Annessa RD

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup canned pure pumpkin
• 2 tablespoons almond milk
• 1/2 cup local honey
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 3 1/2 cups whole rolled oats
• 1/2 chopped walnuts
• 1/2 cup pepitas (shelled pumpkin seeds; if you can’t find pumpkin seeds or you don’t want to shell your own from your pumpkin-carving, use pistachios or pecans)
• 1/3 cup your favorite dry sweetener (I use Sucanat, which is dehydrated evaporated cane juice, or Stevia-in-the-Raw®, if you can stay away from refined sugar, do it!)
• a good sprinkle kosher salt, about 1/2 teaspoon or so
• 1/2 cup golden raisins
