Low Carb Pumpkin Bars

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a 9x9 in (23x23 cm) baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Using a bowl in the microwave or a double boiler on the stove, melt together the cream cheese and coconut oil, until you can stir them together easily.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil/cream cheese mixture, eggs and vanilla. Beat with a hand mixer at medium speed, until smooth.

Step 4

In another bowl, stir together the almond flour, sweetener, baking powder, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.

Step 5

Add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Beat with the hand mixer at low speed, until just combined.

Step 6

Transfer the batter to the lined baking pan and smooth the top. Bake for 20-30 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.

Step 7

To make the frosting, use a hand mixer to beat together the cream cheese, sweetener, and vanilla, until smooth. (You can thin it out with a little milk or cream if you'd like.) Let the bars cool completely before frosting and cutting.
