Time 50m

Yield 1 8x8 pan, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/4 cups old fashioned oats
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup applesauce
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8 by 8 baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk oats, spices, and salt together. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk brown sugar, pumpkin, applesauce, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour over oats and stir well, until all of the oats are moist. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Evenly press oat mixture into prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. The pumpkin keeps the bars moist, so make sure they are golden and set-you don't want them to be under baked. Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut into bars. Remove from pan and let cool completely.
