Gluten-Free Pumpkin Squares (Bars)

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350° F and grease TWO 9x13" baking pans with Pam cooking spray.

Step 2

Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Whisk with a fork and set aside.

Step 3

In a second bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, oil and pumpkin puree. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined.

Step 4

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. The batter will be liquidy.

Step 5

Pour the batter (divided evenly) into the two prepared baking pans and bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool completely before adding the frosting.

Step 6

To make the cream cheese frosting, beat the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and sugar together until smooth. Spread the frosting evenly atop the pumpkin cakes before cutting them into 12 squares per pan.
