Pumpkin bars

Taken from Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook (mine is an older version), here's a recipe for Pumpkiny goodness:



  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 4 beaten eggs (or flax seed to make vegan)
  • 1 15-oz can pumpkin
  • 1 cup cooking oil
  1. Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in wet ingredients until combined. Spread in an ungreased pan.
  2. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes (until a toothpick comes out clean). Cool for 2 hours.
  3. Top with frosting. I used the creamy white frosting from this same cookbook (with orange coloring, of course.)

  1. I love that cookbook. I made these about a month ago, but with fresh peaches instead of pumpkin and they were killer. And then last week I made them with apples and pecans and again they were amazing.
