These deliciously chewy and moist squares are so easy to prepare and are even low-fat! From the Divine Indulgences cookbook by Rose Reisman. Great for a snack or breakfast nibble! Ingredients:
1 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree |
1/2 cup low-fat milk |
1/4 cup vegetable oil |
1 large egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
2/3 cup quick-cooking oats |
1/2 cup chopped pitted dates or 1/2 cup raisins |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/8 teaspoon allspice |
Directions:
1. In a bowl and using a whisk or electric mixer, beat brown sugar, pumpkin, milk, oil, egg and vanilla. 2. In another bowl, stir together flour, oats, dates, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger and allspice. With a wooden spoon, stir the mixture into the pumpkin mixture just until everything is combined. Pour the batter into a prepared dish. 3. Bake in the centre of the oven for 25 or 30 minutes or until a tester inserted into the centre comes out dry. Let the dish cool on a wire rack before cutting into squares. |
