Brown Sugar and Spice Pumpkin Bars

The truth is, we didn't even frost them. We hardly even let them cool. And, if we hadn't eaten all of them, I would have posted a picture.

These are Karina's Kitchen Brown Sugar and Spice Pumpkin Bars, and they're delicious. They smell so wonderful while baking, they have a great texture, they are good straight out of the fridge. I used a Bob's Red Mill Pancake Mix for the required flour, and added some extra xanthan gum. Next time, I may add a pinch of salt, since the flavors could be brought together more.

I'm also going to take these to work tomorrow, for our Pumpkin Bake-Off. There are two ladies I work with who don't do milk products, and these will be perfect for them. And my friend who shares gluten free recipes with me will be there too. :)

3 taste testers:

  1. I'm so glad you liked the recipe- I've never tried Bob's Red Mill flour mix (I avoid soy/legume flours). Good to know that it works in the pumpkin bars (albeit needing more salt?).

  2. Karina,
    It was actually the g.f. pancake mix, and since it has salt in the ingredient list, I figured it didn't need any. I think it would just be more cohesive with an extra pinch.
    Thanks again!

  3. I got the chance to sample just a small bite of these amazing bars and just have to say "IMPRESSIVE". I don't eat gluten free, but man these were tasty. Great job! And thank you Nick for the sampling.
