Steps to make Pumpkin Smore’s bars
- Graham Cracker Crust – This step is super easy. All you need to do is blitz graham crackers in a food process or blender. Add in melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon, and then you have a delicious crust to hold the smore’s bar together. If you do not have a food processor or blender, you can also buy graham cracker crumbs instead of full sheets.
- Pumpkin Layer – This layer is equally as easy to make. All you need to do is whisk pumpkin, sugar, cream, spices, eggs, and chocolate chips until smooth. This layer does take a little while to bake, so be sure to leave sufficient time for that.
- Marshmallow layer – This part cooks quick so pay close attention once you put it in the oven!
Marshmallow Layer
Adding the marshmallow layer is what really brings this whole treat together. Look how delicious the golden brown marshmallows look! Be sure to watch the oven closely once you put these in because marshmallows can burn quickly!
Other Fall treats
Apple Cider — like pumpkin — is another classic fall flavor. Enjoy this taste in Apple Cider Muffins with Brown Butter Crumble
Personally I think Chai Spice transcends all seasons, but there is something so inviting about the flavor on a chilly fall morning. Try Buckwheat Chai Spiced Scones.
Though not specifically fall-flavored, these Crinkle top blondies are a classic – and the square shapes make them perfect for back to school bake sales!
