Exact Ingredients (+ Possible Substitutes)
You only need two main ingredients to make these easy pumpkin brownies:
- 1 box of brownie mix
- 1 can (15 oz) of pumpkin puree or 2 cups fresh pumpkin puree
That’s it! No eggs, oil, or water needed. The pumpkin replaces those ingredients.
Can’t find pumpkin puree? Try canned sweet potato puree instead. It works just as well and gives a similar flavor.
For extra flavor, add 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice. This is optional but adds a nice touch.
Want to make it from scratch? Use your favorite brownie recipe and swap the wet ingredients for pumpkin puree.
Tip: Make sure to use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. The pie filling has added sugar and spices that will change the taste.
Instructions
Ready to make some yummy pumpkin brownies? Here’s how:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grab a 9×9-inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper. This will make it easy to lift out the brownies later.
In a big bowl, mix together the brownie mix and pumpkin pie filling. Stir until they’re well combined.
Pour the batter into your prepared pan. Spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Pop the pan in the oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes.
To check if they’re done, stick a toothpick in the middle. If it comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs, your brownies are ready!
Let them cool before cutting. You can add some whipped cream or frosting on top if you like.
Enjoy your super easy, super tasty pumpkin brownies!
Tips, Tricks & Storing
Want perfect pumpkin brownies? Here are some handy tips:
Use canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. This gives you better control over the flavor and sweetness.
For extra richness, add a handful of chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter before baking.
Don’t overmix! Stir just until the ingredients are combined to keep your brownies tender.
Check for doneness with a toothpick. It should come out with a few moist crumbs, not wet batter.
Let the brownies cool completely before cutting. This helps them set and makes slicing easier.
To store your treats:
Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week.
You can even freeze them! Wrap individual pieces in plastic wrap, then place in a freezer bag. They’ll stay fresh for up to 3 months.
To reheat, pop a frozen brownie in the microwave for 15-20 seconds. Instant chocolatey goodness!
