I just love pumpkin, pumpkin, pumpkin. It is true. Every time I am at the store this time of year, I stock up on the canned pumpkin. I am talking at least 5 cans a visit. I also found a brand that is Organic and BPA Free...holla!
What is not to love about this recipe? A snack and treat that is great for pre -or post- workouts that is protein packed, good for you, and... SO Delicious. Low in sugar too.
I take advantage of this time of year and any recipe I can that involves Pumpkin. When it comes to Pumpkin Bars, I have many recipes I like but I wanted something easier. A bar with no hassles and I wanted them to still stay HEALTHY. So here we are with this recipe.
If you are not sick of pumpkin yet, then you will love these. Can make as a loaf and cut into bars or use a muffin tin and have healthy muffins for on the go!
