Instructions
1
First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8 inch by 8 inch square pan with parchment paper.
2
Brown the butter. Add the sticks of butter to a large skillet over low medium heat. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the butter has become a deep caramel color. Set aside to cool.
3
In a large mixing bowl, add the gluten free flour, pumpkin pie spice, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, and sea salt. Stir together.
4
Then, add in the pumpkin, egg, and water. Stir together.
5
Pour in the browned butter. Make sure to scrape the bottom of the skillet to get those brown bits at the bottom! They have the best flavor. Stir until a dough is formed.
6
Fold in the dark chocolate chips. Stir together.
7
Transfer the batter to the lined pan. Smooth into an even layer.
8
Bake for 30 to 32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean or with a few moist crumbs.
9
Finally, remove from the oven. Cool fully before slicing and serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Brown Your Butter First 🧈Melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until it turns golden and nutty (about 5-7 minutes), then cool slightly before mixing—this amplifies the rich, sophisticated flavor that makes these bars unforgettable.
- Don't Overmix Your Gluten-Free Batter 🥄Stir the gluten-free flour gently and minimally after adding it to avoid developing excess gluten-free starches, which can make bars dense instead of tender and cake-like.
- Toast Your Pumpkin Pie Spice 🎃Bloom the pumpkin pie spice in the warm brown butter for 1-2 minutes before combining with other ingredients to unlock deeper, more vibrant warm spice flavors.
- Use Room Temperature Eggs 🥚Let eggs sit out for 15 minutes before adding—room temperature eggs emulsify better with the batter, creating a moister, more uniformly textured final product.
- Anchor Chocolate Chips Strategically 🍫Reserve dark chocolate chips and fold them in last, then press additional chips into the batter surface before baking so they stay distributed throughout rather than sinking to the bottom.
