How to Prepare Pumpkin Blondies [Vegan]

If you don’t use ready pumpkin puree, bake the pumpkin in oven 390°F 40-50 minutes for halved pumpkin and 15-20 minutes for pumpkin cubes) or simply steam cubed pumpkin for 10 minutes. There’s no need to puree the pumpkin, as it’ll go into food processor with all the other ingredients anyway.
When the pumpkin is ready, add all the ingredients into food processor and process until you have homogeneous batter. Scrape sides whenever necessary.
Finally mix in 3/4 of chopped chocolate or cacao paste.
Next, take a cake tin, baking pan or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and transfer the blondie batter onto the sheet. Now form a circle, square or rectangle that is about 3/4 inch thick, smooth it out with spatula, sprinkle with the remainder of chopped chocolate and bake at 350°F for 35 minutes. Let cool before slicing.
