Can you believe that this bouquet of flowers are 2 Can you believe that this bouquet of flowers are 2 weeks old?! If you haven’t heard of this penny hack before, it definitely works! Just drop a penny dated before 1981 into your water with fresh flower food, and your flowers will last much, much longer! I found a penny dated back to 1979 and it obviously works! It’s because the copper of the penny acts as a natural fungicide in the water! Pretty cool, huh?! 😉 Have a happy Thursday my friends!

Not only do they provide a warm cozy glow, but they repel mosquitoes too with the mosquito repellent pods built right into the string light strand! How cool is that?!
And they were super easy to install, as you can see here! All we did was install some wooden posts around our fire pit area and then attached the string lights to that. Easy Peasy! And the end result is so beautiful! I will definitely be spending a majority of my summer nights out here soaking it all in!

Pumpkin Pie Bars with Maple Cinnamon Whipped Cream

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Since it is almost Thanksgiving time here, I thought I would share with you all one of my most favorites desserts for the season. I make these pumpkin pie bars with maple cinnamon whipped cream every year and they are always a big hit!

I have always loved pies, but I feel like a pie doesn’t go a long enough way. And especially if you have a big family, then a pie just doesn’t last too long.

Also, I am all about leftovers, even when it comes to desserts too! So that’s why I like to make pumpkin pie bars instead of pie. They last a little bit longer and even taste better in my opinion!

And if you missed it last year, be sure to check out my other favorite Thanksgiving dessert recipe- Pecan Pie Bars!

Pumpkin Pie Bars
Look how yummy and delicious it turned out to be!

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Making the Shortbread Crust

These pumpkin pie bars are originally from Willow Bird Baking’s Blog. But I have tweaked a few things from the original recipe. Mainly the fact that I double the recipe.

The original recipe only calls for an 8 x 8 baking dish. But as I mentioned above, I love having extra! So I increased the ingredients to make it into a 9 x 13 baking dish instead.

Also, this recipe is divided up into three steps, but they are all super simple to do!

Making the shortbread crust

The first part is to make your shortbread crust. Which in my opinion again, is the best part of this recipe and what makes it even better than just regular pie.

The shortbread crust is thick and tastes just like a shortbread cookie, which I also love! You need a food processor, or in my case a Ninja Blender since I don’t have a food processor.

I have mentioned this before in my previous recipes, but I always use my Ninja because it has a pulse option too, just like a food processor!

But anyways, you pulse all the shortbread crust ingredients in the food processor/blender until they are fully incorporated.

Then, you press it into a greased 9 x 13 baking dish using your hands. I have also found that using a flat bottom glass works really well for this part too.

Then, throw it in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes or until a nice golden brown.

25 off plus free mug

Make the Pumpkin Pie Filling

The next step to these pumpkin pie bars are to make the filling to go on top of the crust. Simply, grab two bowls, one for the wet ingredients and one for the dry ingredients, and mix away!

You can do this step while the shortbread crust bakes.

Mixing the pumpkin pie filling

Once you have both your wet and dry ingredients mixed, add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients mixing bowl. Then, mix well until fully incorporated.

After you have it all mixed, pour on top of the cooked shortbread crust.

Pour the pumpkin filling on top of shortbread crust

Bake the Pumpkin Pie Bars

After you have poured the pumpkin pie filling onto the crust, throw it back in the oven for another 35 minutes or so. You’ll notice a significant change in color once it’s done. Looks more like pumpkin pie now!

Also, let the bars cool throughly before attempting to add the whipped topping. If you add the topping too soon, it will just melt off.

I like to chill mine completely overnight, but you can also just chill it for 2 hours if you’re in a time crunch!

Make the Maple Cinnamon Whipped Cream

Now, here is the very last step to these delicious pumpkin pie bars! Making the maple cinnamon whipped cream is my favorite because it really elevates this dessert and brings it to the next level!

I had never had maple cinnamon whipped cream before, but man, does it compliment pumpkin flavor very well! And, I always have plenty leftover so I like to add it to my coffee too.

Makes for a delicious cup of coffee as well! To make it, just throw all the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer and beat until stiff peaks form.

Maple Cinnamon Whipped Cream
Here is the maple cinnamon whipped cream all mixed up!

After you have the whipped cream all mixed up, you can then pipe it onto your pumpkin pie bars. You can either do it to each individual bar, or to the whole thing. I like to go ahead and pipe it on the whole thing.

That way, it looks pretty and presentable for Thanksgiving! But of course, you don’t have to if you don’t want to. I use a bakers decorating tool pictured below to make this process easier.

I will link some similar products below too in case you don’t have one. If you do a lot of baking/decorating then I highly recommend them because it saves you so much time.

It’s also much easier to use than piping bags.

Piping Gun for Whipped Cream
I got this bakers decorating tool around the time when we first got married because I absolutely love to bake and decorate! So unfortunately, the exact one is no longer sold, but I have linked a few similar ones for you below:

I always keep the leftovers in the fridge and enjoy them for several days after. I’m telling you, these pumpkin pie bars are definitely worth the work and you will love them much more than regular old pie!

Tell me, do you like pie or pie bars better?! I’d love to know your thoughts on this as well. And let me know if you make these for Thanksgiving (or any other time really) and how they turned out for you too!

    These bars look utterly delicious! Whipped cream is a must alongside my pies, but can you believe I never thought of flavoring it? Love the idea of adding some extra pizzazz to my next dessert by spicing up (pun intended) the cream!
    Thanks for sharing. 🙂

      If you read my post, then you would see I didn’t use a food processor either. I just used a blender and processed it that way

Can you believe that this bouquet of flowers are 2 Can you believe that this bouquet of flowers are 2 weeks old?! If you haven’t heard of this penny hack before, it definitely works! Just drop a penny dated before 1981 into your water with fresh flower food, and your flowers will last much, much longer! I found a penny dated back to 1979 and it obviously works! It’s because the copper of the penny acts as a natural fungicide in the water! Pretty cool, huh?! 😉 Have a happy Thursday my friends!

Let’s make out outdoor space even cozier with @t Let’s make out outdoor space even cozier with @tikibrandproducts BiteFighter LED String Lights! Not only do they provide a warm cozy glow, but they repel mosquitoes too with the mosquito repellent pods built right into the string light strand! How cool is that?!
And they were super easy to install, as you can see here! All we did was install some wooden posts around our fire pit area and then attached the string lights to that. Easy Peasy! And the end result is so beautiful! I will definitely be spending a majority of my summer nights out here soaking it all in!
