This Pumpkin Pie Bars recipe is easy to make, super delicious and perfect for all of your fall celebrations from Halloween to Thanksgiving. Sponsored by In The Raw.
Can you believe October is almost over and tomorrow is Halloween? I wanted to make a Halloween dessert that the whole family will love, so of course, a pumpkin dessert came to mind.
These bars turned out so good and they are perfect for bringing to Halloween parties. But don’t worry if you are too busy to make them tonight because you can still make pumpkin desserts all through November!
These bars are made with Monk Fruit In The Raw® which comes from the delicious vine-ripened monk fruit, also called luo han guo. It’s a zero-calorie sweetener that tastes like sugar and is available in the Monk Fruit In The Raw® Bakers Bag for making baked goods like these bars.
I also have the Monk Fruit In The Raw® Packets which are the perfect size for coffee, tea, and smoothies. Learn more about Monk Fruit In The Raw® here.
Pumpkin Pie Bars Recipe
Step One:
For this recipe, I made a graham cracker crust rather than the traditional pie crust because my kids love it so much more.
The graham cracker crust adds flavor and texture to these pumpkin bars.
Press the crust into a 9×13 inch pan.
Step Two:
Mix together the pumpkin pie filling and pour it over the crust.
Step Three:
Bake at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely.
Step Four:
Cover with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
These Pumpkin Pie Bars are easy to make, super delicious and perfect for all of your fall celebrations. The addition of Monk Fruit In The Raw reduces the amount of sugar in the bars and no one will even know it! That is great for Halloween when all of the kids are eating tons of trick-or-treating candy.
