Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices.
  • In another large bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
  • Gradually stir the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  • Pour the batter into the greased baking dish. Spread it evenly across the dish.

Baking

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Check if it’s done by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
  • Allow the bars to cool completely before cutting them into squares.

Notes

These pumpkin bars pair beautifully with whipped cream, ice cream, caramel sauce, or chopped nuts for added texture.
