Ingredients
1/2 cup spelt flour (or white flour, oat flour, etc.) 1 tsp cinnamon 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 1 “egg” of choice- I used 1 tsp ener-g powder, but 1 tbsp ground flax would work. If necessary, you can omit completely. 3 tablespoons brown sugar (or agave) (For a sugar-free version, you can use xylitol.) 2 packets NuNaturals stevia (or 2 more tablespoons sugar) 1/2 cup canned pumpkin (or cooked, pureed pumpkin) 2 tablespoons milk of choice 2 tablespoons oil (Some readers say subbing applesauce is fine, but I haven’t tried it. Coconut oil is really good, but veg oil is ok too.) 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine dry ingredients, then add in wet. Spread into an oiled 7×5 pan (or double the recipe for an 8×8) and cook for 14-15 minutes. Note: You can sub agave for the sugar; they’ll just be fluffier/cake-ier.

Let the pan cool for at least ten minutes before cutting or frosting the squares. Also, the flavors seem to intensify and these taste even sweeter the next day.
