Description

Pumpkin Pie Crumble Bars are a delicious mash-up of creamy pumpkin pie filling and a buttery spiced crumble. The bottom doubles as a crust, while the top adds crunch and texture. These easy bars are perfect for Thanksgiving, potlucks, or anytime you’re craving pumpkin pie without the fuss of a crust.


Ingredients

For the Crust & Crumble Topping:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats

  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Pumpkin Filling:

  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

  • 1/2 cup evaporated milk or heavy cream

  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract


Instructions

1. Preheat Oven:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  • Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.

2. Make the Crust & Crumble:

  • In a large bowl, mix flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

  • Stir in melted butter until crumbly and combined.

  • Reserve 3/4 cup of the mixture for the topping.

  • Press the remaining mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan to form the crust.

3. Prepare the Pumpkin Filling:

  • In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, sugar, egg, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla until smooth.

4. Assemble the Bars:

  • Pour the pumpkin filling over the crust and spread evenly.

  • Sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture on top.

5. Bake:

  • Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.

  • Cool completely in the pan, then chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour before slicing into bars.


Notes

  • These bars slice best when chilled.

  • You can double the recipe and bake in a 9×13-inch pan for a larger batch.

  • Add chopped pecans to the topping for a nutty twist!
