Ingredients

  • 1 C 80g Rolled Oats
  • 2 C 34g Puffed Rice Cereal
  • 1/4 C 30g Raw Pumpkin Seeds
  • 2 scoops 61g PEScience Protein Powder, vanilla
  • 2-3 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice to taste
  • 1/4 C 60g Canned Pumpkin
  • 2 Tbsp 42g Honey
  • 1/4 C 56g Light Butter, I used Land O' Lakes with canola

Instructions

  • Preheat an oven to 325F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick spray. 
  • Mix the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
  • Gradually add the honey, pumpkin, and light butter, folding everything together gently.
  • Transfer the mixture to the baking sheet. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across the entire baking sheet. Be sure to break up any large clumps and aim to have as many holes or spaces as possible in the mixture.
  • Bake for 20 minutes before removing from the oven to flip/shake/stir. Bake for an additional 5-10 minutes or until the granola is as crunchy as you'd like. (It will continue to crisp a bit after it comes out of the oven so don't burn it. If you'd like it extra crispy, you can remove some of the crispy bits around the edges and continue baking the larger pieces.)

Notes

  • Each serving has 3 Smart Points.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temp. If you have an air fryer or Ninja Foodi, I like toasting it for 1-2 minutes before serving to get it extra crispy.
