It occurred to me this morning that I haven't shared here what is a big part of my life--cooking. I have several sources of amazing recipes and this is one of them--Taste of Home. If you follow this link, you will find an article called "Ten Must Make Recipes for October."
I decided to share this one as it is one of my family's favorites. I've been making Pumpkin Bars for at least 4 decades and they are always gone quickly. I can't say if this is identical to my recipe, without digging out my recipe, but it looks quite similar except I use avocado oil. I hope someone will try this recipe and have a new family favorite.
Happy baking,
Dawn

- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1-2/3 cups sugar
- 1 cup canola oil
- 1 can (15 ounces) pumpkin

Directions
- In a bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, oil and pumpkin until well blended. Combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt; gradually add to pumpkin mixture and mix well. Pour into an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until set. Cool completely.
