Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup old-fashioned oats
• 0.75 cup light brown sugar
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup white chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup chopped pecans

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, oats, and brown sugar. Mix well.

Step 3

Pour the melted butter into the dry ingredients and stir until the mixture is crumbly. Reserve 3/4 cup of this mixture for topping.

Step 4

Press the remaining crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form the crust.

Step 5

In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, egg, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until smooth.

Step 6

Spread the pumpkin mixture evenly over the crust in the pan.

Step 7

Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over the top, followed by the white chocolate chips and chopped pecans.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-28 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.

Step 9

Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

Step 10

Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the pan. Slice into 12 squares and serve.
