This small batch pumpkin spice granola is filled with warm fall flavors, crunchy nuts and seeds, and lightly sweetened with maple syrup and brown sugar.
In a large bowl, mix the oats, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, coconut, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and salt.
In a small pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the maple syrup and pumpkin purée and cook until smooth, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla.
Pour the pumpkin mixture over the oat mixture and stir until fully combined.
Spread the granola evenly on a parchment- or silicone-lined rimmed baking sheet.
Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to ensure even toasting.
Let the granola cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container.
