How to Make Rich Fudgy Pumpkin Brownies No Chocolate

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 large egg, and 1 cup pumpkin puree.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ½ teaspoon baking powder. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup pecan halves.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs. The edges will be lightly browned.
  8. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
