Ingredients

Crust layer

  • 1/2 cup oat flour gluten free
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar or sugar of choice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 Tbsp oil I used avocado
  • pinch salt

Pumpkin Pie layer

  • 15 oz canned pumpkin
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
  • Place all the dry ingredients for the crust, except the oil, into a food processor. Slowly add the oil while processing until the mixture begins to clump together.
  • Firmly press the mixture into the prepared pan. Bake for 10 minutes.
  • While the crust bakes, mix the pumpkin pie layer ingredients in a food processor or large mixing bowl until well combined.
  • Pour mixture into the baked crust and bake in a preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set. Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it's done if it comes out clean. If wet batter sticks, bake a little longer. 
  • Allow the bars to cool for 15-20 minutes and then refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. The longer they chill, the better the flavor. Enjoy!
