This is one of my new favorite pumpkin recipes. I predict that I will be making this several times this Fall! It is so crumbly and full of sweet, cinnamon, pumpkin flavor! Believe it or not, this recipe is vegan. I used cornstarch instead of eggs, and soy milk instead of milk. If you want to use eggs and milk, you certainly can. For every 2 tablespoons of cornstarch use one egg, and use equal amounts of milk as soy milk. I also used Betty Crocker’s Gluten Free Cake mix, but using Duncan Hines Yellow Cake mix would make it vegan too.
This dessert tastes wonderful alone, but adding whipped cream or a little vanilla ice cream would definitely kick it up a notch. Adding Haggen-Dazs Brown Sugar ice cream would take this treat to an entirely different level of tastiness! I am thinking I also might try this recipe using a spice cake mix to see how that pairs with the pumpkin filling. I think it might be quite the flavor combination!

Yum! I really need to bust out the fall recipes. Bookmarking this one!
yum!! I just bought some pumpkin today too, I gotta try these

These bars are just what I’ve been craving! Wow, they look way too amazing.
Do you think I could use Canned Pumpkin instead of the pumpkin pie filling? I was thinking of adding a mashed banana to the pumpkin to add some sweetness? I guess I could experiment with it.
Thanks so much for this recipe. I can’t wait to make them!
These look amazing, Megan! I love using soy milk, so I’ll have to try. So many recipes, so little time. Thanks for sharing.

This sounds wonderful. I just have a quick question, is this quick or regular oats. Thanks,
I used regular rolled oats. Enjoy!
This sounds fantastic!
I mixed applesauce with cinnamon as a side/topping and heated it up with the bar- delicious!!

The pumpkin pie crumble bars sure look good, and sound good I have tried using soy milk in recipes before with some problems, I sure will give this a try.
