I didn't expect these bars to be that great since they contain no butter or oil but they were light and delicious!
Spiced Pumpkin Bars
another great find from Kay's Country Cookin'
2 cup flour
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 T baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cloves
4 eggs
1 3/4 cup mashed pumpkin
1 cup applesauce
Combine dry ingredients. Combine egg, pumpkin, and applesauce; stir well. Stir in dry ingredients. Spread in greased 10x15 baking pan. Bake 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees. Do not over bake. Dust with powdered sugar when cooled, if desired.
Forgive my dumb question -- are these soft or chewy (cake like)? I am looking for something to make as a snack bar for my daughter that I can wrap in individual slices.

DeleteThat is a great question. These bars are soft, moist, and cake-like. So they would not be the greatest as a wrapped bar.
Hope that helps.

Thanks Gina. I could still make them for hubby to take to work, so no loss. Thanks for sharing all the recipes.
DeleteLove your blog. It's so sweet and warm. Thanks for the recipe. I will be trying these here in the next few days. Very inspiring!

I am loving all these pumpkin recipes!! I need to plan a day to make them.
ReplyDeleteI wanted you to see my cloth napkins I made that you gave me the idea for. I couldn't find your post from yesterday about you making cloth napkins and didn't know how to find it.
