Pumpkin Paleo Granola

Granola is nice to keep around when you need a snack with some protein and fat in it. Great as a cereal in the morning with some almond or coconut milk. Always a great option to bring on long road trips to prevent unnecessary snack on food and at places that are not exactly Paleo Friendly. Fall is such a beautiful season, and this Pumpkin Paleo Granola brings the taste and feel of Fall during any season of the year.
