How to Make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
  3. In a large bowl, combine: 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup brown sugar, 2 large eggs, ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce (egg substitute), ⅓ cup vegetable oil.
  4. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground allspice, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Stir in 1 ½ cups chocolate chips.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 23-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
  10. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into 2-inch squares.
