Healthy One-Bowl Chocolate Chunk Pumpkin Bars (Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free)
These healthy one bowl gluten-free & dairy-free chocolate chunk pumpkin bars are the perfect fall-inspired treat! They contain no refined sugar!
One of my favorite things about fall is baking ALL the pumpkin recipes! I had a vision for these chocolate chunk pumpkin bars and they do not disappoint! They’re made with all clean, real ingredients and thanks to the oat flour are ‘flourless’. If you’re gluten-free be sure to use certified gluten-free oat flour. This recipe is also free of dairy and refined sugar.
The chocolate used in this recipe is Hu Kitchen‘s dark chocolate bar (sliced up into chunks). I am OBSESSED with their chocolate because it’s made with minimal clean ingredients! It contains no gluten, refined sugar, no cane sugar, no sugar alcohols, no GMO’s, no dairy, no emulsifiers and no soy lecithin. It’s a chocolate I can feel good about eating. I don’t think of their chocolate as candy or junk food – because when the ingredients are all clean and natural, it’s not. Aside from the perfect ingredient line-up, let’s discuss how DELICIOUS their chocolate is! They have so many different incredible flavors such as dark chocolate stuffed with cashew butter as well as a banana flavor! It’s truly my favorite!! For these bars I used the Simple Dark Chocolate bar, but I imagine their Salty Dark Chocolate bar would be just as delicious!
