Description
These bars combine everything you love about pumpkin pie with the ease of a handheld dessert. A buttery shortbread-style crust lays the foundation, topped with a smooth pumpkin filling and finished with a golden, spiced oat crumble. They’re simple to make, slice beautifully, and are perfect for prepping ahead of time for any fall gathering.
Ingredients
Crust & Crumble
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup old-fashioned oats
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of salt

1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 pan with parchment.
Mix flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in butter until crumbly.
Press half the mixture into the bottom of the pan to form the crust.
