Prepare bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flours, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg substitute, coconut oil, Silk, maple syrup and pumpkin puree, stirring until well combined.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Pour pumpkin mixture into a prepared 8"x8" baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Let bars sit for 5 minutes, then remove from pan and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

Prepare frosting

  1. While bars cool, add dairy-free cream cheese, maple syrup and vanilla extract to the bowl of a stand mixer and whip on high until smooth. Add Silk one teaspoon at a time until frosting reaches desired creaminess.
  2. Evenly spread cream cheese frosting over bars once they've cooled completely, top with a dash of pumpkin pie spice and cut into 16 pieces to serve.
