Provided by carvalhohm

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups Fiber One® original bran cereal
1/2 cup canola or vegetable oil
1/2 cup orange juice
1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup walnuts, chopped
1 cup powdered sugar
4 to 6 teaspoons orange juice

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 15x10x1-inch pan with cooking spray, or grease and flour pan. Place cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag and crush with rolling pin or meat mallet (or crush in food processor). In large bowl, beat oil, 1/2 cup orange juice, the pumpkin and eggs with electric mixer on low speed until well blended. Stir in crushed cereal; let stand 10 minutes. Beat in remaining bar ingredients except walnuts on low speed until well blended. Stir in walnuts. Spread evenly in pan. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until top springs back when touched lightly in center. Cool completely, about 1 hour. In small bowl, mix powdered sugar and enough of the 4 to 6 teaspoons orange juice for desired drizzling consistency. Drizzle over bars. For bars, cut into 8 rows by 4 rows. You can store bars for up to two months in your freezer. Layer bars with waxed paper and tightly cover in freezer containers.

Tips:

  • For a perfectly smooth glaze, strain the powdered sugar mixture before pouring it over the bars.
  • If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking pan, you can use a 13x9 inch pan. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • To make sure the bars are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, they're done.
  • Allow the bars to cool completely before glazing them. This will help the glaze set properly.
  • For a festive touch, decorate the bars with fall-themed sprinkles or chopped nuts.

Conclusion:

Glazed pumpkin bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for fall. With their moist and flavorful pumpkin cake base and sweet and tangy glaze, these bars are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
