I thought these would be more like a granola bar (harder and crispy), but they were more like a pumpkin bread. It was very tasty but even when I doubled the serving size, I consider that a very small serving. I wanted to substitute the oil with applesauce but forgot. But I enjoyed them very much just the same.

I made these for my husband to take to work and share with the guys and they were a big hit!! I left out the nuts and they were still good. I think they would also be good if you added in some raisens.
