Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup vegetable oil
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup solid pack pumpkin puree
• ½ cup sifted confectioners' sugar
• 1 tablespoon real maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• ¾ cup raisins

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside. In a large bowl beat the eggs, oil and sugar together until smooth. Stir in the pumpkin, then the dry ingredients. Finally, stir in the raisins.

Step 3

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow bars to cool before adding the glaze.

Step 4

To make the glaze, stir together the confectioners' sugar with the maple syrup. If glaze is too thick to drizzle from a spoon, just add a little water. Drizzle over the cooled pumpkin bars before cutting. Individual bars can be decorated with a candy corn or candy pumpkin.
