When my friend gifted me with pumpkin, am thinking what to do with it. So far I have baked Pumpkin Galette, Mini Pumpkin Tarts. and Pumpkin Banana Bread, all made with pumpkin. So decided to bake Pumpkin Bars this time.
The main ingredient for this recipe is pumpkin puree, to get this I steam the pumpkin until it turns soft. Mash the pumpkin while it is still hot. Now it is ready to be used.
Used only ground cinnamon but you can add nutmeg and ground ginger as well. Making these Pumpkin Bars are incredibly easy, no mixer needed.
It turns out fabulous, super moist and beautifully sliced. Feel free to add frosting of your choice to dress it up a bit.
