Ingredients

1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
1 ⅔ cups white sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup applesauce
4 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground cloves

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Mix pumpkin puree, sugar, oil, applesauce, and eggs together in a medium bowl until fluffy.
Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves together in a large bowl. Add pumpkin mixture and stir until combined. Pour into the prepared baking pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool, about 15 minutes before cutting into 24 bars.
