Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 cup pecans (sometimes I add sunflower seeds for part of the nuts)
- 3/4 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, nuts, coconut and brown sugar.
- In a separate bowl or liquid measuring cup, combine maple syrup, oil and salt (and pumpkin pie spice, if using).
- Combine both mixtures by slowly pouring the liquid over the oatmeal mixture and stirring well. Divide in half and pour onto two 11X17-inch rimmed baking sheets, spreading out into an even layer on each sheet.
- Cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes, until golden.
- Remove from the oven and transfer into a large bowl, slightly breaking up the clumps.
