Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups of pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • ½ cup of vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, and oil until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until well incorporated.
