Easy Pumpkin Bars Recipe: Soft, Spiced & Delicious Fall Treat

Easy Pumpkin Bars Recipe: Soft, Spiced & Delicious Fall Treat

Looking for a cozy treat that’s simple to make and packed with fall flavors? These Pumpkin Bars are the answer! With a tender, moist texture and hints of cinnamon, they’re perfect for dessert or a sweet snack. Made with wholesome ingredients like coconut sugar, pumpkin puree, and unsweetened applesauce, these bars offer a delicious taste of autumn in every bite.

What Makes These Pumpkin Bars So Special?
These bars are made with pure pumpkin puree, which brings natural sweetness and moisture while adding a boost of vitamins and fiber. Coconut sugar gives them a rich, caramel-like flavor, and a touch of olive oil and applesauce adds softness without overpowering. With a sprinkle of cinnamon, you get a classic fall treat that’s perfectly spiced.

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 1 ½ cups (180g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 2 eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 cup (180g) coconut sugar
  • 1 cup (250g) pumpkin puree
  • ½ cup (120ml) olive oil
  • ¾ cup (185g) unsweetened applesauce
How to Make Pumpkin Bars
  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a square baking pan with baking paper. This makes it easier to remove the bars later.
  2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda. This step ensures the baking soda and cinnamon are evenly distributed.
  3. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, coconut sugar, pumpkin puree, olive oil, and applesauce. Blend until smooth, which gives the bars a tender, moist texture.
  4. Combine and Pour: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Pour the batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
  5. Bake and Cool: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes. When a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, your pumpkin bars are done. Remove them from the oven and let the pan cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Why You’ll Love These Pumpkin Bars
These bars are more than just delicious—they’re also nutritious! Pumpkin puree is a great source of vitamins A and C, essential for immune support, especially as the weather cools down. The combination of coconut sugar and applesauce offers natural sweetness without refined sugars, making this a healthier treat that’s great for sharing or enjoying solo.

Storage Tip: Store any leftover bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the fridge for up to a week.

These Pumpkin Bars are easy to make, easy to love, and perfect for any fall gathering. Serve them up with a hot drink, and savor the seasonal flavors!
