How to make pumpkin crumble bars
Find the complete recipe with measurements in the recipe card below. Whisk the flour, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl, then mix in the butter until crumbly. Set aside 1 cup of the crumbly mixture for the topping and press the rest into a prepared baking pan. Set aside. Blend the ingredients for the pumpkin layer until very smooth. Pour the filling over the crust in the baking pan, then sprinkle the remaining crumb topping over top. Bake the pumpkin pie crumble bars until the top is golden brown and mostly set. Note: The bars may still look a little jiggly as they come out of the oven, but they’ll firm up as they cool. Set the pumpkin bars aside to cool for 30 minutes before transferring them to the fridge to chill for 2 hours. Once chilled and firm, slice them into bars and serve with coconut whipped cream on top or vanilla ice cream on the side. Enjoy!
