Preheat your oven to 325Β°F (160Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, chopped pecans, pumpkin seeds, and shredded coconut.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt to the wet mixture, and whisk until evenly combined.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Stir thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.
Spread the mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking. Watch closely toward the end to prevent burning.
Remove the granola from the oven and allow it to cool on the sheet. It will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, add the dried cranberries if using, and toss to combine.
Store the granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy as a snack or serve with yogurt, milk, or as a topping for smoothie bowls!
