You are going to love these healthy pumpkin breakfast bars. Made with simple and wholesome ingredients, they’re refined sugar-free and oh so tasty. Have them in the morning (or an afternoon snack) with a layer of peanut butter and berries on the side. I also like to crumble it over Greek yogurt for a morning parfait.
You can also make these in granola bar molds, you will just have to reduce the cooking time.
The pumpkin pie spice gives it a rich, full flavor, that goes amazing with your morning coffee. Whether you savour it as you sip or dip it - you're going to love this recipe.
Another option is to use maple syrup and the ratio for that is for every cup of sugar, swap it or 3/4 cup maple syrup.

Recipe details
Ingredients
- 4 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
- 3 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking pan (I used a glass loaf pan) with parchment paper or rub down with coconut oil. Set aside.
- Place half of the rolled oats in the glass of a blender and pulse until you have a ground meal. Pour into a bowl.
- Add the rest of the rolled oats, coconut sugar, and pumpkin spice and mix until well incorporated.
- Mix in butter/coconut oil and pumpkin puree, it should resemble coarse sand and stick together when pressed.
- Press the mix into prepared pan with the back of a spoon, making sure it's packed in tight.
- Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool for ten minutes. Run a knife along the edges, then flip onto a cutting board. Let cool completely and slice into bars.
