Tips for Making the Best Pumpkin Bars with Browned Butter Frosting
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. You can make your own by roasting and pureeing a sugar pumpkin, or you can use canned pumpkin puree.
- Be sure to brown the butter for the frosting until it is a deep golden brown color. This will give the frosting a rich, nutty flavor.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bars tough.
- Bake the bars until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the bars dry.
- Let the bars cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
Conclusion
