Ingredients
For the Bars:
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 2/3 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 can pure pumpkin 15 ounces
- 4 large eggs
For the Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
For the Pumpkin Bars:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and grease a 9X13 baking pan or line the pan with parchment paper with enough overhang on the sides to easily lift the bars (as a whole) out.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, vegetable oil and pumpkin until combined.
- Then add in the eggs and whisk until combined.
- Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 30-32 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Remove the bars from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature for topping with the frosting.
For the Cream Cheese Frosting:
- Beat together the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy with a hand held mixer or stand up mixer.
- Add in the vanilla extract and powdered sugar. Mix on a low speed until combined and the frosting is smooth.
- Spread the frosting onto the cooled pumpkin bars. Then the pumpkin bars are to cut, serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Cover leftover bars tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If you skipped the frosting, cover and store plain pumpkin bars at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
