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!

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.

Provided by Sharon123

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 16 bars

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups white flour
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 ounces cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup ice water
3 large eggs
2/3 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, mace and cloves)
1 (15 ounce) can solid pack pumpkin
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 cup walnuts, chopped (4 ounces)
1/4 cup white flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar
4 ounces unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

  • Make the Pastry:.
  • In food processor, combine the flour with the sugar and salt. Add the pieces of cold butter and pulse until they resemble small peas. Add the ice water and pulse just until the dough is slightly moistened. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead it serveral times, until it comes together. Flatten the dough into a flat circle, wrap it in plastic and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350*F. Butter a 9"x13" glass baking dish. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the pastry to an 11"x15" rectangle, about 1/8" thick. Trim the pastry to a 10"x14" rectangle. Roll the pastry around the rolling pin and carefully unroll it in prepared baking dish, easing it into the corners. Line the pastry with aluminum foil and fill with dried beans. Bake the pastry for 20 minutes, or until it is lightly browned and just set. Remove the foil and beans. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes longer, until the pastry is cooked through but not browned.
  • Make the filling:.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the light brown sugar, cinnamon and pumpkin-pie spice. Add the pumpkin puree and whisk until smooth. Whisk in evaporated milk until the filling is blended. Pour the filling into the prebaked crust and smooth the surface. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the filling is set around the edges but very wiggly in the center.
  • Make the Topping:.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the walnuts with the flour and brown sugar. Add the butter and stir until combined. Drop tablespoons of the topping onto the partially baked pumpkin layer. Bake about 20 minutes longer, until the topping is sizzling and golden and the pumpkin filling is just barely wiggly in the center. Let it cool completely, and cut into 16 bars. Enjoy!
  • Note: the bars can be refrigerated up to 3 days.
