How to Make Pumpkin Bar

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before frosting.
  8. Once cooled, frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting (recipe not included, but a simple cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla frosting works great!).
  9. Cut into bars and enjoy!
