I thought it was appropriate to start sharing some pumpkin recipes, seeing as how Starbucks has their pumpkin spice lattes out!
Are you a fan of pumpkin?
I happen to love it and love baking with pumpkin this time of year.
I think my all time favorite is my moms recipe for pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, which you can find here.
I have been making these for the last 30 years, they are so good!
But today I am sharing a pumpkin brownie recipe that is to die for!
I like to double this recipe as these brownies freeze well.
I will pull them out of the freezer to thaw and bring with me to fall get togethers, or whenever a sweet seasonal treat sounds good.
Pumpkin brownies-
You will need the following ingredients:
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/2 t baking powder
- 1/2 t salt
- 3/4 cups melted butter
- 1.5 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Instructions-
-
-
Preheat oven to 350°F.
-
Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan.
-
In a bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate bowl, stir together the melted butter, sugar, and vanilla. Using a spoon, mix in eggs one at a time. Gradually stir in your flour mixture, and divide the batter evenly among two separate bowls.
-
Stir cocoa powder and chocolate chips into one batter. In the second bowl of batter, stir in the pumpkin puree, walnuts, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
-
Spread ½ of the chocolate batter into the bottom of a greased 8×8 baking pan. Spread ½ of the pumpkin batter on top of that.
-
Add dollops of each of the remaining batters into the baking pan (this will make it easier to swirl). Then, drag a kitchen knife gently through the dollops of chocolate and pumpkin batter to create a swirled top.
-
 Bake for 45-48 minutes.

I hope you love these pumpkin brownies as much as we do!

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
