Crunchy, Sweet, and Perfectly Spiced, this Pumpkin Spice Granola is a delicious Fall treat! Vegan, Gluten-Free, and made with only 7 ingredients.

Heck yes I went there! Has anyone else been feeling all the Fall feels this month?  

I’ve made Pumpkin Bread, Pumpkin Spice Cake Pops, and even taken a savory route with some Pumpkin Soup and One Pot Pumpkin Pasta. “But why stop there?” I thought, “let’s make some GRANOLA!”

Not only is this Granola crunchy and perfectly sweet, but it’s also bursting with Fall flavor! Not only is this Granola loaded with Pumpkin Pie Spice, but it’s also speckled with other seasonal nuts like Pumpkin Seeds and Pecans. 

All in all, it’s made from only 7 healthy and plant-based ingredients, plus it’s Oil, Gluten, and Refined-Sugar Free! How’s that for a great way to start the day?!

I love to serve this Pumpkin Spice Granola with fresh Non-Dairy Milk, as a topping on a Yogurt Bowl, or eaten on its own as a snack. However you serve it, you’re sure as heck going to wish you made a double batch because this stuff is addicting! 😉 Your house is going to smell amazing while it’s baking in the oven too.

A Few Final Thoughts:

  • The secret to uber-crunchy clusters in your Granola is to press it down with a spatula! When it’s time to flip the granola, gently break it apart to keep the big chunks. 
  • If you have an Allergy you can sub the Almond Butter for another Nut/Seed Butter of choice, and swap out the Pecans for something else?
  • Don’t have Pumpkin Pie Spice in your pantry? Here’s how to make your own.

  1. Store bought granola who??? This is fantastic and I have now become a granola snob!! Store-bought granola just can’t compare. Love love this recipe and can’t wait to try other granola recipes!!

  2. Delicious! I love the texture of the granola – very crunchy! I made one batch replacing half the almond butter with pumpkin puree and it was still super crunchy. I enjoyed it on top of almondmilk yogurt and have a bunch for the rest of the week. Thank you for coming up with an oil free granola!

  3. This made the house smell fabulous while cooking! I subbed out the maple syrup for one super ripe mashed banana and it worked out perfectly, if anyone wants a no added sugar version. Delicious! ????

  4. So so yummy! Perfect for fall. Sweet but not too sweet. Way better than store bought. Definitely a new staple. Thanks for sharing!

  5. Love this stuff! Made a batch last week, and my 2nd batch is cooling as I type. I recently came across your yotube channel and it’s really encouraged me to go vegan. Your recipes are so great Caitlin! Thanks for sharing and doing all that you do!

    1. Hi Joy! It’s actually just a Vanilla Non-Dairy Yogurt mixed with Pumpkin Puree and a bit of Pumpkin Pie Spice 🙂

  6. I just made this granola this afternoon and it’s fantastic. I can’t wait to use it in my breakfast and as a plus it made my house smell so warm and inviting.

  7. This looks amazing! Can’t wait to try it. Also, I am obsessed with your dishes/bowls! Would you mind sharing where you got them?
