THE BEST PUMPKIN BARS I'VE EVER HAD



The Best Pumpkin Bars I've Ever Had image

These are the best pumpkin bars I've ever had. They have incredible spiced pumpkin flavor and aren't quite as light and cakey as most other recipes I've tried. Instead, they're soft and sturdy which pairs perfectly with the spiced cream cheese frosting on top!

Provided by Sally

Categories     Bars

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 and 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice*
1 cup (240ml) vegetable oil*
3 large eggs
1 cup (200g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar
2 Tablespoons (30ml) pure maple syrup
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree*
1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
8 ounces (224g) full-fat block cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
3 cups (360g) confectioners' sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/8 teaspoon salt
optional: sprinkles for decorating

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and grease a 10×15 inch baking pan. Or line the pan with parchment paper with enough overhang on the sides to easily lift the bars (as a whole) out.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice together in a large bowl. Set aside. Whisk the oil, eggs, brown sugar, granulated sugar, maple syrup, pumpkin, and vanilla extract together until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and use a mixer or whisk until completely combined. Batter will be thick.
  • Spread batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 28-35 minutes. Baking times vary, so keep an eye on yours. The bars are done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If you find the top or edges of the bars browning too quickly, loosely tent with aluminum foil.
  • Remove the bars from the oven and set the pan on a wire rack. Cool bars completely. (After about 45 minutes of cooling, you can place the bars in the refrigerator to speed things up!)
  • In a large bowl using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese and butter together on high speed until smooth and creamy. Add confectioners' sugar, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds, then switch to high speed and beat for 2 minutes. If you want the frosting a little thicker, add an extra 1/4 cup of confectioners sugar. Spread the frosting on the cooled bars. To help "set" the frosting, refrigerate for 30 minutes before slicing and serving. This makes cutting easier and less messy.
  • Enjoy with or without a fork, but definitely grab a napkin!
  • Cover leftover bars tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If you skipped the frosting, cover and store plain pumpkin bars at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

FALL HARVEST BUTTERNUT SQUASH/PUMPKIN BARS-NO FAT, SUGAR-FREE



Fall Harvest Butternut Squash/Pumpkin Bars-No Fat, Sugar-Free image

This is adaption that I came up with from Recipe #232072 that is no fat and sugar free for dietary reasons. It is chock full of flavor, moist and very healthy!! You can also add to it to suit you. It is lower also in calories!! My six year old even loves it and have requested it already!! I have added to the baseline of this recipe and she did not even know she was eating Squash nor how healthy it was-she thought it was the real deal!! In my version, vanilla extract was added and pumpkin pie spice. For a real kick, I added two handfuls of coconut, 1/2 cup of macadamia nuts, coconut extract and Da'Vinci Sugar Free Caramel Syrup with Fat Free Cream Cheese frosting with Sugar Free Caramel Syrup!! You can also use any Squash or Pumpkin..be creative..but if you add more ingredients, remember it adds more calories!! Prep time not included for pureed squash although you can use baby food squash-its the something but fresher is better! Enjoy-we do..very delish and Yummy too! Update: If you are going to use just Squash, because of higher water content, OMIT the APPLESAUCE and INCREASE FLOUR TO 3 Cups.. I found this out the hard way. Also, don't use metal pan if you can help it..don't worry squash does turn color the next day. Must be refrigerated as well after you are done with it..
