De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish.

    Ongeveer 5 min

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt for the crumb base.

    Ongeveer 2 min

  3. 3

    Add the cold, cubed butter for the base and cut it in using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

    Ongeveer 5 min

    Tip van de kok: Work quickly to keep the butter cold, which ensures a more tender crust.

  4. 4

    Press the crumb base mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

    Ongeveer 3 min

    Tip van de kok: Use the bottom of a measuring cup to get a flat, even surface.

  5. 5

    Bake the base for 15 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned, then set it on a wire rack to cool slightly.

    Ongeveer 15 min

  6. 6

    While the base bakes, prepare the filling by whisking together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, and all filling spices in a large bowl until smooth.

    Ongeveer 5 min

    Tip van de kok: Do not overmix; just whisk until everything is combined to avoid a tough texture.

  7. 7

    Pour the pumpkin filling evenly over the pre-baked crust.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  8. 8

    In a separate small bowl, combine the flour, oats, and brown sugar for the crumb topping.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  9. 9

    Cut in the cold butter for the topping until crumbly, then stir in the chopped pecans.

    Ongeveer 3 min

  10. 10

    Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the pumpkin filling.

    Ongeveer 1 min

  11. 11

    Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.

    Ongeveer 35 min

    Tip van de kok: The center should have a very slight jiggle when it's done.

  12. 12

    Let the squares cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting and serving.

    Ongeveer 1 uur 30 min

    Tip van de kok: Chilling the squares in the refrigerator for at least an hour after cooling will make them easier to cut cleanly.
