Pumpkin Pie Bars
Our delicious, easy Pumpkin Pie Bars recipe is a fun twist on a traditional pumpkin pie - perfect for any Fall party or the holidays!
Ingredients
Crust:
- 1 1/4 cup graham crackers crushed (regular or gluten-free)
- 1/2 cup butter melted (vegan or regular butter)
Filling:
- 4 eggs
- 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree or approx. 2 cups homemade puree
- 1 11.25 oz can dairy-free sweetened condensed milk reg works too
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 tablespoons real maple syrup optional, if you want it a bit sweeter
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9x9 pan with parchment ensuring there are flaps on either side to help remove the bars. Spray the parchment-lined pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Graham Cracker Crust: Combine crushed graham crackers and melted butter in a small bowl. Pour out into the prepared pan and spread out evenly, press down firmly with your hands to make a flat crust. Bake, on the middle rack, for 10 minutes. Then remove and let cool.
- Filling: Meanwhile, combine egg, pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice and maple syrup (if using) in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Bake: Pour the filling on top of the crust and return to the oven to bake, middle rack, for 1 hour.
- Let Cool: Let cool fully at room temperature before serving to allow the filling to set (recommend placing in the fridge overnight to really help things firm up).
- Serve: Enjoy with whipped cream of your choice (dairy-free or otherwise).
Notes
- Crust: if you want the crust a little thicker feel free to add in another 1/4 cup crushed graham crackers.
- Gluten-Free: simply use gluten-free graham crackers.
- Pie: we also have a Pumpkin Pie with Graham Cracker Crust if you love these flavors but want them in pie form!
- Storage: store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days - perfect Thanksgiving menu item to make ahead of time!
- Dairy-Free Sweetened Condensed Milk: we always use this dairy free sweetened condensed milk!
