Ingredients For The Best Gluten Free Pumpkin Bar
It only takes a few simple ingredient to make the gluten free pumpkin bars.
Eggs: Eggs and gluten free flour help to bind the ingredients together in a recipe.
Sugar: Not only does sugar give sweetness to a recipe it also gives moisture.
Oil: Using a cannoli oil in this recipe gives a superior texture that bakes a fluffy, loftier, and more moist bake good.
Pumpkin: The pumpkin puree is what gives the pumpkin bar recipe the flavor, moisture, and texture. I used pumpkin puree not the pumpkin mix or pie filling as it has extra ingredient that is not needed in this recipe.
Gluten Free Flour with Xantham Gum: Gluten Free flour helps to give this recipe it’s texture.
Baking Powder and Baking Soda: These two ingredients are necessary for leavening the pumpkin bars.
Pumpkin Spice, Salt, and Pure Vanilla: These ingredients are purely for enhancing the flavor.

A Few Tips on Baking Pumpkin Bars
A few tips on baking pumpkin bars
1.) When testing to see if the pumpkin bars are done baking I use a cake tester to check if the bars are baked evenly.
2.) I used a gluten free cooking spray on the baking pan.
3.) I used a baking pan that is 1 inch in height, if you use less it’s okay but the pumpkin bars will be a little thinner.
4.) The pumpkin bars are delicious when frosted with a cream cheese frosting or just sprinkled with a little powder sugar.
5.) Adding chocolate chips, raisins, or nuts to the top of the pumpkin bar are also delicious.
These pumpkin bars bake up so moist and are almost like a pumpkin cake. We just ate our pumpkin bars right out of the little liners.

I pulled a complete print out from your site and made them a couple days ago…AWESOME! Almost all gone, only because I put some in the spare fridge. My only issue was the pan size. Next time I think I’ll use a 9x13, a little more cake. I used a fun 12-cupcake/brownie pan & a 9”pie plate - the individuals are perfect. The icing is addictive! I added more cream cheese. Mmmm!
