Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 2 (8 oz) blocks cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter cubed

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9 inch baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix well and press firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.
  3. In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt until smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour the pumpkin cheesecake filling over the crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix together rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add cold, cubed butter and mix until crumbly to create the streusel topping.
  6. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the cheesecake filling.
  7. Bake for 30 minutes or until the filling is set and the streusel is golden brown. Let cool before slicing.
  8. Cut into bars and serve for a delicious fall dessert.

Notes

For serving, these bars can be enhanced with a drizzle of caramel sauce on top. Allow them to cool completely before cutting for cleaner slices.
