Pumpkin Bar Cake Ingredients:

4 eggs, beaten

1 cup oil

2 cups sugar

1 cup pumpkin

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. baking powder

2 cups flour

1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Pumpkin Bar Cake Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mix the wet ingredients together. At our house we use farm-fresh eggs from our backyard chickens. 🙂

Add the dry ingredients gradually and stir well. Pour the batter into a 9 x 13 inch baking pan that has been prepped with cooking spray.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. To test for doneness, insert a toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean, it is done.

Cool the cake completely. It is delicious with my fluffy cream cheese frosting or whipped cream on top, or you can serve it hot with a scoop of ice cream! Sometimes my family eats the whole thing before I can even get it frosted!

You know you want to eat this!

(Too bad—I already did!)
