Ingredients
  

Pumpkin Bars
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1.5 cups sugar
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 0.5 tsp nutmeg
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin
  • 2 eggs
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil
Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 cup butter, softened
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • whisk
  • baking pan (9x13 inch)
  • wire rack
  • electric mixer

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the canned pumpkin, eggs, and vegetable oil, then mix until well blended.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid overmixing.
Baking
  1. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  2. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  3. Let the pumpkin bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before frosting.
Frosting
  1. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy.
  2. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until the frosting is light and fluffy.
  3. Once the pumpkin bars are completely cool, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top and cut into squares.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of ground cloves or ginger to the dry ingredients. Ensure the pumpkin bars are completely cool before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
