Description

A great fall treat that is not overly sweet! Can be served warm or cold, and with or without a dollop of whipped cream.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE FILLING:
  • 1 cup Chopped Dates
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree (not Pie Filling)
  • 1 cup Water
  • ¾ teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • _____
  • FOR THE CRUMBLE:
  • 1-½ cup Rolled Oats (not Instant)
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • ⅔ cups Packed Brown Sugar
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • ½ cups Chopped Pecans
  • ¾ cups Melted Butter

Preparation

In a saucepan, bring filling ingredients to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.

In a large bowl, mix crumble ingredients except for the butter. Mix until combined and, with a fork, incorporate the melted butter until crumbly.

Pat half of the crumble mix into a lightly greased 8×8 pan. Spread filling over the top and sprinkle with remaining crumble mix.

Bake in the center of a 350-degree oven for 30 minutes or until golden. Cool in the pan on a rack.

Enjoy!

The crust was awesome… used coconut instead of nuts cuz allergic kids in my house, I found the filling to thick . Next time I will try it with less pumpkin. Thanks for the recipe

I made these for Thanksgiving. They are very good and not at all sweet, but I don’t know if they actually turned out right? The toothpick came out clean…they are a soft filling inside, almost like a thick pumpkin pie with the crust of crumbles. I liked them and hopefully they were of the right consistency

Good. I found them very sweet, gooey, and rich. A little goes a long way in my opinion. Will probably make again.
