Ingredients

  • 2 cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour divided
  • 2 cups old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup light brown sugar firmly packed
  • ¾ cup pecans chopped, optional
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 ¼ cups unsalted butter softened
  • 2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cream or milk
  • 2 eggs large
  • 1 9-ounce jar pumpkin butter or 1 batch homemade

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with foil, letting excess extend over sides of pan; spray foil with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, stir together 2 cups flour, oats, brown sugar, pecans (if using), salt, pie spice, and baking soda. Add butter, and beat with a mixer until mixture is crumbly. Reserve 1 1/2 cups oat mixture in a small bowl; press remaining oat mixture into bottom of prepared pan.
  • Bake until set and just barely golden, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile in the same large bowl, beat cream cheese, granulated sugar, cream or milk, and remaining 1 tablespoon flour with a mixer at medium speed until creamy, 2-3 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape sides of bowl. Add eggs, one and a time, beating well after each addition. Pour mixture onto prepared crust and spoon pumpkin butter by tablespoonfuls onto cream cheese mixture. Using a knife, swirl mixtures together. Sprinkle reserved oat mixture on top.
  • Bake until top is golden brown, 30-35 minutes. Let cool completely in pan on wire rack. Using excess foil as handles, remove from pan before cutting into bars. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
