Description

Soft, moist pumpkin bars filled with warm autumn spices and topped with a rich, buttery maple syrup glaze.


Ingredients

Scale

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
4 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 can (15 oz) pure pumpkin puree
1/4 cup unsalted butter (for glaze)
1/2 cup pure maple syrup (for glaze)
1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)


Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt until well combined.
Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, and pumpkin puree until the mixture is smooth and light.
Step 4: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not over-mix.
Step 5: Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan using a spatula to smooth the surface.
Step 6: Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack.
Step 7: To make the glaze, melt the butter and maple syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Step 8: Remove from heat and whisk in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until the glaze is completely smooth.
Step 9: Pour the warm glaze over the slightly warm pumpkin bars, spreading it to the edges. Allow the glaze to set completely before slicing into bars.

Notes

Ensure you use pure pumpkin puree and not pumpkin pie filling for the best results. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
