How to Make Sweet Carrot Pumpkin Bars

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed pumpkin, carrots, brown sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in the chopped walnuts (optional).
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
  9. Dust with powdered sugar before serving (optional).
