Ingredients
  • 2 TBSP Butter or Coconut Oil
  • 1 TBSP Olive Oil
  • ½ cup Brown Sugar
  • ¼ cup Honey
  • ¼ cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 2 TBSP + ¼ cup Pumpkin Beer
  • ½ cup Walnuts, chopped
  • ½ cup Pecans, chopped
  • ½ cup sliced Almonds
  • ½ cup Peanuts
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • ¼ cup Dried Cranberries
  • ¾ cup Quinoa, rinsed but not cooked
  • 1 TBSP Flax Seeds
  • ¾ cup Old Fashioned Oatmeal
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 300F.
  2. Heat butter, oil, sugar, honey, pumpkin puree and pumpkin beer over medium-high heat. Bring it to a boil, then reduce heat simmer until the color has deepened and the mixture is thick, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, combine nuts, pie spice, dried cranberries, quinoa and oats. Mix Well. Pour pumpkin mixture over the top and mix well to combine. Spread on a baking sheet covered with parchment and bake 18-23 minutes. Mixture should be a little gooey still, but will firm up as it cools. If it doesn't firm up, stick it back in the oven 5 minutes more.
