Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! Today I’m sharing a recipe for vegan pumpkin bars. Fall is vastly approaching, and I absolutely love fall treats. Pumpkin pie, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin muffins–you name it. Pumpkin desserts are some of my favorite recipes to make, and I am so excited to make all of the baked goods this fall season. Here’s the recipe for vegan pumpkin pie bars.
Ingredients
- Canned Pumpkin: The first ingredient you need to make these vegan pumpkin pie bars is canned pumpkin. Canned pumpkin is a great ingredient to use when baking pumpkin desserts because it not only adds a strong pumpkin flavor, but it makes any treat super soft and gooey. These pumpkin pie bars turned out really fudgy with the perfect consistency.
- Whole Wheat Flour: The next ingredient you need is whole wheat flour. This recipe calls for 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour.
- Baking Powder: The next ingredient you need is baking powder. This recipe calls for 1/4 tsp of baking powder.
- Baking Soda: Next is baking soda. This recipe calls for 1/4 tsp of baking soda.
- Cinnamon: The next ingredient you need is cinnamon. This recipe calls for 1/2 tsp of cinnamon.
- Maple Syrup: Next, you need 2 tbsp of maple syrup. Maple syrup is one of my favorite sweeteners to use when making dessert recipes because it’s super sweet.
- Mini Chocolate Chips: The last ingredient you need is mini vegan chocolate chips. For this recipe, I used 2 tsp of mini chocolate chips and sprinkled them on top of the pumpkin bars before baking them in the oven. You could also fold some chocolate chips into the batter, or add more than the recipe calls for!
