Food Storage Friday: Pumpkin Granola

I came across this granola recipe and had to try it out. Quite delicious and perfect for fall!


Ingredients: oats, puffed rice cereal, salt, brown sugar, applesauce, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, vanilla, chopped nuts, dried fruit of choice, cinnamon, ginger, allspice and nutmeg


Pour pumpkin, applesauce, brown sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, spices and salt into bowl and mix well
Combine oats and rice cereal in large bowl, pour wet ingredients onto dry and mix well. Spread onto a cookie sheet in an even layer. Bake at 325 for 25-30 minutes then turn the granola with a large wide spatula. Add nuts and bake for an additional 15 minutes. Add dried fruit when granola is cooled.

I emailed you another Food storage Friday suggest. I hope you got it.

Do you have a Safely Gathered in Face book page?

Sounds good. I am wondering what the best dried fruit to add to the mix would be.
