Let us know how it was!FAQs About Vegan Pumpkin Blondies
Can I prepare these blondies ahead of time?
Yep! Bake them the day before and keep them covered at room temp. When it’s time to serve, just pop them in the oven or microwave for a quick warm-up. They’ll taste freshly baked and keep their gooey texture, which makes them a stress-free dessert for entertaining.
What can I use instead of pumpkin puree?
Mashed banana or unsweetened applesauce both work well as swaps. They keep the blondies moist and sweet, though you’ll lose a bit of that classic pumpkin flavor. If you’re after fall vibes without pumpkin, sweet potato puree is another great choice.
How should I store leftovers?
Store cooled blondies in an airtight container 3 days on the counter or up to a week in the fridge. If you like them gooey, reheat for a few seconds in the microwave before digging in. They’ll taste just as rich and indulgent as day one.
How can I make them extra gooey?
Don’t overbake take them out when the center still looks slightly soft. For bonus gooeyness, drizzle on maple glaze or melt extra chocolate chips over the top while they’re warm. That’ll turn cozy into next-level decadent.
