Autumn is in the air! And with it comes the irresistible aroma of pumpkin spice, making me crave all things pumpkin. Today, I am introducing a super easy, delicious and nutritious treat. Perfect for those busy mornings or an afternoon pick-me-up.

No-bake Pumpkin Granola Bars

What you need to prepare these incredibly delicious granola bars:

For these granola bars, I used Bob’s Red Mill organic protein oats which have 3 more grams than your regular rolled oats. To keep them simple I added organic pumpkin seeds, cranberries and dairy-free chocolate chips.

For a seasonal touch I used pumpkin spice and pumpkin puree. Feel free to add other fall spices e.g. additional cinnamon. 

To keep them refined sugar-free and no-bake I used a mix of maple syrup, almond butter, and coconut oil.
