These Easy Pumpkin Pie Bars are a simple twist on classic pumpkin pie, featuring a buttery graham cracker crust and a smooth, spiced pumpkin filling. Perfect for holidays or any fall occasion, they’re easier to serve than traditional pie and just as delicious.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 1415 full crackers)
  • 6 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • Whipped cream, for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×9 or 8×8 baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and brown sugar until evenly combined.
  3. Press crust mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 8 minutes, then remove from oven and set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, eggs, granulated sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves until smooth.
  5. Pour pumpkin filling over the pre-baked crust. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  6. Let bars cool at room temperature, then chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  7. Slice into squares and top with whipped cream before serving, if desired.

Notes

  • Use canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
  • Bars slice more cleanly after chilling overnight.
  • You can use store-bought graham cracker crumbs to save time.
  • Top with chopped nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flair.
