How to Make Spiced Zucchini Carrot Bars

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan.
In a large bowl, cream together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and softened butter until light and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and pumpkin pie spice.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
Fold in the grated zucchini, carrots, nuts (if using), and coconut (if using).
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bars cool completely in the pan before frosting.
Prepare your chosen frosting according to its recipe instructions and spread evenly over the cooled bars.
Cut into bars and serve. Enjoy!
