healthy pumpkin bars

These bars are tender when warm out of the oven, so do be sure to let them cool completely before slicing.

cup whole wheat flour or gluten free flour blend

flaxseed

cinnamon

teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

teaspoon baking powder

teaspoon baking soda

eggs

cup pumpkin puree

maple syrup

coconut oil

teaspoon vanilla extract

chocolate chips, raisins, dried cranberries, or chopped walnuts

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and coat an 8&#215;8 pan with nonstick spray.

Add all ingredients to a medium bowl and stir together to combine thoroughly, but gently.

Place batter into prepared and smooth with a spatula so the batter is evenly distributed in the pan.

Bake for 20-24 minutes or until lightly golden brown around the edges and a cake tester inserted into the middle comes out cleanly.

I made this with my 2.5 year old grandson. So easy and they came out great. I want sure if he’d like the texture of the oats, but they were soft and smooth in texture and he loved them! We’ll be making these again, thanks!

This is my go to website when I want to find a reliable healthy and tasty recipe to feed my 3 and 1.5 year old! These pumpkin bars are AMAZING. They're healthy and just the perfect amount of sweet, I used mini dark chocolate chips in mine and after tasting them I wound up making a second pan just for myself!

My kids absolutely loved this ! They loved to eat the dough before baking it too  😂. Thanks so much ❤️.

I was trying to find a recipe that would curb my sweet tooth, but still on the healthier side! I definitely think this recipe is it! However, if I wanted them to be just a tad bit sweeter, should I add more coconut sugar? If so, how much would you recommend adding? Thanks!! I already can’t wait to make these again!

delicious - the perfect dessert or snack bar! I'm making another batch today, they went so fast.

Absolutely amazing! I make pumpkin bars every Thanksgiving and it’s not a recipe that uses the healthiest ingredients. My family loves them though. This recipe is hands down my favorite and the family agrees. Thanks for sharing your delicious recipes with us.

These are great! I did not expect the pumpkin flavor to be as bold as it is, and I really like it! Very easy to make as well. I only needed to cook mine for 20 minutes and they were a little overdone, but I think that was my mistake. Even so, they are great. Thanks!!

These are a Fall staple in my house. They’ve turned out great every time I’ve made them. Making them later this week, but I don’t have applesauce so I’ll see how they turn out. Maybe I can just grate an apple in there.

I made these with Bob's Gluten free flour and 2 whole eggs. They are tasty but came out a tad dry. This was my first attempt using gluten free flour so I don't know if the liquids need to be adjusted to compensate or what. They are still tasty though!

I make these almost every week.  Whole family can’t get enough.  Use spelt flour, a whole egg instead of the 2 whites and coconut yogurt instead, but it still turns out beautifully.

Side note, there has not been one of your recipes, that I have tried, that hasn’t be amazing.  Love your website.

These are seriously good. I used half whole wheat (not pastry) and half AP flour. They are so moist and fluffy. The only issue I had was my edges were slightly chewy, but that could have been overmixing since my toddler helped make them :) Mine were done at around 23 minutes, glad I checked them when I did. Might even check at 20 mins next time - there will def be a next time!

These healthy pumpkin bars are soft, spiced, and lightly sweetened with pure maple syrup. They’re made with wholesome ingredients like pumpkin puree, natural nut butter, and almond flour.

natural almond or cashew butter

almond flour

tsp pumpkin spice

tsp baking powder

tsp salt

chocolate

Preheat oven to 350F and line a 8x8&quot; pan with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, maple syrup, almond butter, eggs, and vanilla.

Add the almond flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt. Whisk again until smooth.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle a few dark chocolate chunks on top if desired.

Bake at 350F for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

I’m always on the lookout for new pumpkin recipes once fall arrives. I like trying something different instead of the usual pumpkin muffins or pumpkin bread. These bars are very easy to make, and I really enjoy the extra chocolate on top!
