    List of Ingredients




    Pumpkin Pie Bars

    2 cups pumpkin (in a can)
    1/2 cup egg whites (or egg substitute)
    3/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
    1/2 cup evaporated fat-free milk (I use reduced-fat)
    1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
    1 box spice cake mix
    3/4 to 1 cup flour*
    2/3 cup butter
    1 cup sugar
    1/2 cup chopped walnuts

    Topping/Crust:
    Melt the butter, add 1/4 spice cake mix, flour*, sugar and walnuts. It will become a crumbly consistency. Take about 1/2 of the mixture and layer the bottom of a greased 9"x13" pan. Press down with hands to make it packed. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes until golden brown.

    Filling:
    Mix together pumpkin, egg whites, apple sauce, evaporated milk, pumpkin pie spice and all but 1/4 of the spice cake mix (the remainder is for the crust/topping). Mix well for two minutes, then pour on top of the baked crust.

    Topping:
    Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over the top of the cake batter in the pan.

    Bake:
    Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 60 minutes (I did about 50 minutes because it stays more moist). Cool and cut into squares.

    Cook's Notes
    *When adding the flour, gradually add -- you may not need to use as much because of the spice cake mix.
