These bars sound delicious, and the pumpkin makes them healthy too. I think they would travel well, they would probably be nice to send in packages to loved ones.
This looks very easy to make and sound delicious. I’m adding this to my must try recipes file. Thanks for posting this lovely recipe.

These sound delicious. I will have to find a flour alternative and sugar alternative and then give this recipe a whirl.
Okay. I am always looking for new things to put pumpkin in and these look amazing. Thank you for the idea. I am already writing the ingredients down for my shopping list!
Do you cook each cake separately or stack them?
You would cook each cake separately.
Looks so yummy!
Can you use rectangle cake pans??
Ohhhhhh no, my cake is raw. I went back and now read that it should go into two separate binder cakes not one! It all fit in one so I thought it was going to be ok. So sad, I’ll try it again. I’ll halve the recipe.
