By khojnicki

Ingredients

• Cooking spray
• 2 1/2 c all purpose flour
• 1 1/2 c rolled oats
• 1 c confectioner's sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 1/2 c pumpkin butter

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9"x13" baking dish with foil. Coat with cooking spray.

Whisk the flour, oats, confectioner's sugar, pie spice, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Work in the butter with your fingers until clumps form. Press three-quarters of the dough into the baking dish; spread the pumpkin butter. Crumble the remaining dough on top.

Bake until lightly browned, 40-45 mins. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely in the pan. Remove and cut into pieces.
