🍴 Servings: 16 brownies

🕒 Prep Time: 20 minutes

🕖 Cook Time: 30-35 minutes

🕖 Total Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients:

For the Brownie Batter:

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup all-purpose flour

⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

¼ teaspoon baking powder

¼ teaspoon salt

For the Pumpkin Layer:

½ cup canned pumpkin puree

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground ginger

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

¼ teaspoon ground cloves

¼ teaspoon baking powder

A pinch of salt

Instructions:

1️⃣ Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease

and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with

parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the

sides for easy removal.

2️⃣ Prepare the Brownie Batter:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted

butter and granulated sugar until smooth.

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after

each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

in a separate bowl, sift together the flour,

cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet

ingredients, mixing just until combined. Set

aside.

3️⃣ Prepare the Pumpkin Layer:

In another bowl, mix together the pumpkin

puree, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla

extract until smooth.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour,

cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, baking

powder, and salt.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the

pumpkin mixture, mixing just until combined.

4️⃣ Assemble the Brownies:

Pour half of the brownie batter into the

prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.

Gently spoon the pumpkin batter over the

brownie layer, spreading it evenly.

Drop spoonfuls of the remaining brownie batter

over the pumpkin layer. Use a knife or skewer

to swirl the batters together, creating a marbled

effect.

5️⃣ Bake the Brownies:

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes,

or until a toothpick inserted into the center

comes out with a few moist crumbs.

Allow the brownies to cool completely in the

pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using

the parchment overhang.

6️⃣ Serve:

Cut the brownies into squares and enjoy!
