These pumpkin brownies are made with almond flour, coconut sugar and pumpkin puree instead of any oil. They’re rich, fudgy, super moist and absolutely delicious! Gluten-free + dairy-free.
I’m a huge fan of sneaking veggies into my recipes whenever I can, especially when it comes to desserts. I’ve shared zucchini brownies, butternut squash pancakes, sweet potato cookies and now my latest obsession: these pumpkin brownies!
The pumpkin puree not only replaces the oil or butter you’d typically find in brownies, but it also adds some extra nutrients. Yes please! These brownies are just as easy to whip up as a brownie box mix from the store, but they’re healthier and made with just 9 simple real-food ingredients. And no one will even be able to tell they’re made with pumpkin. They are so rich and fudgy and guaranteed to become your new favorite fall dessert.
Why You’ll Love These Pumpkin Brownies
- Pumpkin not only adds extra nutrition but also extra moisture – no oil needed!
- You only need 9 simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand!
- Gluten-free, dairy-free and oil-free!
- It’s the perfect recipe to use up any leftover pumpkin puree.
Why Add Pumpkin to Brownies
Pumpkins are a “nutrient-dense” food, which means they are rich in vitamins and minerals and low in calories because it’s 94% water. They are abundant with beta-carotene, which your body turns into vitamin A, making it a potent antioxidant that’s great for your eyes and immune system. Pumpkins are also high in vitamin K, which aids in blood clotting and is beneficial to bone health.
You may have noticed that there’s no oil or butter in this recipe, and that’s because pumpkin puree is the perfect fat substitute. It adds moisture to baked goods, allowing you to minimize or eliminate the need for oil entirely.
Ingredients Needed
- pumpkin puree – instead of oil we’re using pumpkin puree! You could either buy canned pumpkin puree from a store or use homemade pumpkin puree. Just be sure not to get pumpkin pie filling, as they will be loaded with sugars.
- eggs – helps bind the ingredients together and provide structure for the brownies.
- coconut sugar – I used coconut sugar in this recipe, which is a great alternative to other sugars and adds a nice molasses flavor to these brownies.
- vanilla extract – just a touch to elevate the flavors in these brownies.
- almond flour – a delicious gluten-free, nutrient-dense flour, that will add a light nutty flavor to your brownies. I recommend Bob’s Red Mill super fine almond flour as it’s perfect for baked goods.
- cocoa powder – a much-needed ingredient for that rich chocolatey flavor! Make sure to use unsweetened powder. Cacao powder works for this recipe as well. I like Navitas organic cacao powder.
- baking powder – a complete leavening agent to help the brownies rise.
- sea salt – brings all the flavors together.
- dark chocolate chips – can you go wrong with more chocolate?! I think not! I recommend Enjoy Life dark chocolate chips which are allergen-friendly or Lily’s chocolate chips because they are lower in sugar and calories.
How to Make
Preheat your oven to 350ºF and grease an 8×8 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, coconut sugar and vanilla extract. In the same bowl, add the dry ingredients: almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Mix everything together well until any clumps are gone. Then, fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 30-35 minutes. You’ll know the brownies are ready when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let brownies cool completely (trust me, they test better cool, plus you won’t burn your mouth). Cut into squares and enjoy!
Substitutions & Notes
- Flour: I haven’t tried a substitute for the almond flour in these brownies, but if you have a nut allergy my first choice would be oat flour. The end result might turn out a touch differently, but that would be the closest substitute!
- Eggs: I haven’t tried it, but I bet swapping the eggs for 2 flax eggs or chia seed eggs would work. The brownies just might not rise as much. Let me know if you try it in the comments below!
- Coconut sugar: If you don’t like the taste of coconut sugar or don’t have any on hand, you could use cane sugar, granulated sugar or brown sugar for these brownies.
- Chocolate chips: Feel free to skip the chocolate chips if you want or you could swap them with your favorite nut like walnuts or pecans.
How to Serve Pumpkin Brownies
If you feel like getting fancy here are some ideas on how to serve these brownies:
- Coconut whip – a scoop of coconut whip cream would be so delicious on top of these pumpkin brownies.
- Nut butter – a drizzle of your favorite nut butter would not only taste great but add some extra protein to your brownie. You can’t go wrong with almond butter, especially if it’s homemade. Other great options are cashew butter, peanut butter or tahini. This pumpkin almond butter would also be delicious!
- Pumpkin butter – there’s no such thing as too much pumpkin in my opinion so if you want to add some extra pumpkin flavor to your brownie it’d be delicious with a drizzle of this pumpkin butter + dash of pumpkin pie spice.
- Oatmeal – crumble some brownie bits to your morning oatmeal for a delicious chocolatey treat. It’d be amazing crumbled on top of this pumpkin oatmeal.
- Yogurt – want to eat a brownie for breakfast? Crumble it on top of some Greek yogurt (or any yogurt of choice) with a sprinkle of granola (this pumpkin granola and hemp granola are delicious) and fresh berries. Like a breakfast brownie sundae… so good!
- Ice Cream – you really can’t go wrong with adding a scoop of your favorite ice cream on top of your freshly made, warm pumpkin brownie. Vanilla would be my first choice, but for some dairy-free options you can try this banana ice cream or chocolate banana ice cream would be tasty!
How to Store Leftovers
These brownies don’t tend to last long in our house, but if you have leftovers they’ll stay fresh at room temperature for about 2 days or in an airtight container in the fridge for about a week. For longer storage, I recommend freezing them. Store in a freezer-safe, airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Do you think this would work with regular sugar or a natural sugar substitute if I don’t have coconut sugar?
Definitely! Cane sugar or granulated sugar should work just fine. Let me know if you end up trying them and what you think!
I love anything with pumpkin! I can I sub oat flour for the almond flour?
Hey Elisa – I haven’t tried it, so I’m not 100% sure how the brownies will turn out. I bet it would work, but the consistency/texture might be slightly different. Let me know if you end up trying it!
Brittany!
I used 1/2 cup of oat flour for my second batch because I ran out of almond flour & the consistency was very similar. A tiny and I mean tiny bit more dense! But still delicious
I love baking with pumpkin! Can I sub oat flour for the almond flour? These look delicious!

Really excited to try these and they didn’t disappoint. You can’t taste the pumpkin and it was super easy to follow the recipe with items I had on hand. My first time using coconut sugar and approved by two kids ages 5&7. Not overly sweet at all and I used dark cocoa powder. Thanks!
Yay! So glad these brownies were a hit, Melissa. Thanks for making them and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!

I made this recently and reviewed but I don’t think it was submitted. I was saying that I had no eggs so I used flaxseed eggs, not enough almond flour so used 1/2 cup homemade oat flour, and had to chop up my dairy free chocolate block for a friend and decided to toss all in which was about a scant 2/3 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chunks. Everyone was happy! “Oh bummer! There’s too much chocolate in here!” says no one ever! 🤣 Thanks, Brittany!
Yay! So glad these brownies were a hit, Michelle. Thanks for sharing your subs and I’m glad they turned out with flax eggs and oat flour!!
I just made these tonight and they are delicious! I love the fudgey texture! Pumpkin was the perfect addition in these brownies.
Yay! So glad you loved these brownies, Jennifer. Thanks for making them and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!

These were easy to make and very tasty. Mine did not rise as much as the picture shows, so I will try them again to see if I did something wrong. Nonetheless, everyone loved them.
I’m glad these brownies were a hit, Paula! Did you use flax eggs or regular eggs? Also, I wonder if your leavening agent might have been older?
These were so good! Moist with only a hint of pumpkin. Super easy recipe to follow too!
So glad you loved these brownies, Nan. Thanks for making them and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!

Yay!! So glad you loved this recipe. Thanks for giving it a try and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it, Cristina!
Amazing! My first pumpkin recipe I made this season. These are the subs I made, partly based on my own curiosity and partly inspired by what I had on hand.
Instead of almond flour, I used a jar of Oat Haus Brownie Batter granola butter. And then instead of cocoa powder, I used chocolate collagen peptides (Further Food).
I love how every recipe I’ve made from this blog has been so delicious! Thankful for the breakfast and treat inspirations in particular for my kiddo.
This one is another win! 🎃💛
So glad you loved this recipe and I’m glad it turned out for you with the subs you made! Thanks for sharing and for coming back to leave a review, Amy!
These brownies are fudgy and delicious! Easy to make and family approved!
Yay! So glad these brownies were a hit! Thanks for making them and for coming back to leave a review! I so appreciate it.
I loved these brownies. They are great for the fall. Even though I am a lover of pumpkin spice, it is nice to just use the pumpkin to add even more fudginess
So glad you loved this recipe, Siena! Thanks for making it and for coming back to leave a review! I so appreciate it.
Absolutely delicious & so easy to make too. My whole family loves them. Eating them cold, straight from the fridge is definitely the best way!
Yay! So glad these brownies were a hit with the whole family! Thanks for making this recipe and for coming back to leave a review!
These were so fudgy and delicious! Came together quick and baked up nicely in the 30 minutes. Being a nursing mama of a MSPI baby these were just the dairy and soy free treat I needed!
I’m so glad you loved these brownies, Kaitlin. Thanks for making them and for coming back to leave a review. I so appreciate it!
These were so yummy and yet healthy tasting! They were gone within 3 days! Super delicious. I used a little bit less sugar (cane sugar) and added walnuts.
AH YAY! I am so happy that you enjoyed this recipe, Berangere! Thank you for your review + star rating, I so appreciate it!
Turned out too dense and dry for us. And the pop up ads on this page make it almost unusable from a phone (which is all I use) they cover up 3/4 of the screen. When your hands are messy while baking you can’t be closing out adds all the time.
Oh no! So sorry to hear that you had troubles with this recipe, Emily. Did you change anything about the recipe? And thank you for letting me know about the ads. I can see how that would be annoying. What phone do you have? I’ll be sure to chat with my developer about this.
Hey Emily – Are you also able to send a screenshot of how the ads pop up for you to hello@eatingbirdfood.com so I can share it with my developer. Thank you!!
What a great recipe! I love how it only uses one bowl! I didn’t have enough almond flour so I ended up subbing in about 1/2 cup oat flour and used Lily’s chocolate chips– turned out perfect! Very moist! I would definitely make these brownies again! Thank you for the recipe!
WOO! I am so happy that this recipe is a hit, Lisa. Thank you for your review + star rating, I so appreciate it!
These were good for a healthy treat but in my opinion not great like your recipes usually are! Thank you for all your hard work to give us healthy options, I always look forward to trying your recipes!!
Hi Sarah – I am sorry to hear that these weren’t a hit. Thank you for your feedback & star rating, I really appreciate you being here!
The brownies were a good healthy alternative but not great like many of you recipes. Thank you for always giving us healthy alternatives to try, I always look forward to trying new recipes!
I’ve made these twice now!! Even my husband and daughter love them. I had to double the recipe. They’re so fudgy and sweet, I love that they’re healthier and also so easy to make. Thanks for the recipe!
YES! I love that you all are enjoying this recipe, Barb! Thank you for leaving your review & star rating, I so appreciate it.

These were amazing! A rich chocolate, not too sweet, and I will definitely make again!
Subbed granulated sugar and enjoy life semi-sweet mini morsels (it’s what we had in the house) and they. Turned out delicious.
We have a gas oven and after reading the comments I cut 10 minutes off the cooking time and let them cool. They tuned out perfect.
THANK YOU!
AH YAY! I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed this recipe, Mary! Thank you for sharing the baking changes for a gas oven, that is incredibly helpful. Thank you for sharing your review & star rating, I really appreciate it!

These are a super delicious healthy alternative to traditional brownies, AND my 10 year old loves them, AND they came together in literally 10 mins with minimal clean up. Total win! Also, one can of pumpkin makes these, two mason jars of the pumpkin pie overnight oats, and the pumpkin cream for cold brew! Happy Fall!
These were yummy and super easy to make. Loved the chocolate and pumpkin and that they weren’t too sweet. I used flax eggs so that they would be vegan; worked perfectly.
WOO! I am excited that you are loving this recipe, Bridget! Thank you so much for your review & star rating, I so appreciate it!
This is an excellent healthy recipe ! It is moist with a deep chocolate flavor. I like pumpkin when associated with spices, but I don’t especially like the taste of it by itself. So, I was glad that the pumpkin flavor was kind of masked by the chocolat ! Thank’s again for that delicious fall dessert. 🙂
These are amazing! We like them best out of the fridge, which seems to reduce any residual “vegetable-y” flavor and improve the texture. I made them a second time with half oat flour/half almond flour and find they have a more traditional brownie texture that way (they hold together better, at least when made with a regular egg). Super simple and creates minimal dishes, especially if you measure the ingredients with a scale. Definitely give these a try!
AH YAY! I am so happy to hear that you are enjoying this recipe, Ashley. Thank you for coming back and leaving your review & star rating, I appreciate it.

I just made this recipe—it’s starting to be the perfect fall weather in Maine so we were craving pumpkin-something. These are perfect! I didn’t have cocoa powder so I used hot chocolate mix instead and just cut back on a little of the sugar (we do what we must!) They are delicious and just what we needed.

I used oat flour instead of almond and they turned out great. Very easy to make and turned out a great way to use extra pumpkin and voila! a healthy chocolatey treat. Definitely a repeat recipe with variations of toppings and flour for me.
YUM! I am so excited to hear that you are loving this recipe, Neha. Thank you so much for sharing your review + star rating, I so appreciate it!
First time buying a pumpkin ( Yes, I’ve been married not long ago and before that my mom use to cook and bake lol) My husband is very picky and doesn’t like Pumkin. I decided to try this receipe and not tell him that about the pumpkin. Well, he ate it and loved it! Should I tell him the truth now? 😂
I used the exact receipe with a little twist. I used coconut cane sugar as you suggested in the article. Will do it again for sure.
This is great, Eliza. I am so happy that you are both loving this recipe. Thank you for sharing your review & star rating, I really appreciate it!
I love making these! The brownies are so easy to make and they’ve become a staple in my fridge! Best part, my husband doesn’t like the texture of almond flour so he doesn’t eat them (more for me)!

Can I use honey instead of coconut sugar?
Good question. I haven’t tried the recipe with honey instead of coconut sugar but I think it should work. Let me know if you try it!
I made these brownies with one slight modification (granulated sugar in place of coconut sugar) and they turned out really well! I appreciated that the brownies are a more healthy alternative to a box of brownie mix and they made for a nice treat! I tried them warm too because I really love a warm brownie but the cooled version was better, just like the description said.
AH YAY! I am so excited that you are loving this recipe, Jessica. Thank you so much for sharing your review & star rating, I really appreciate it.
I made these last Sunday and they have been a HUGE hit with my family! Perfect midday snack for me and my hubby and I even included them as a healthy “treat” in my preschooler’s lunches. 🙂 Followed the recipe exactly and will definitely make again.

I have made this several times and just now for a trial run for this Friday. I had volunteered a pan for my daughter’s youth group this Friday and I’m out of almond flour. I used 1/2 cup Pamela’s gluten free all purpose flour blend and 1 cup oat flour. Flaxseed eggs as usual! It works with those subs! I have read about gluten flour making things gummy which I have never noticed until now but I actually kind of like it! 😆 Thanks again, Brittany! ❤️
It is my pleasure! I am so happy to hear that this recipe is a hit, Michelle. Thank you so much for your review + star rating, I really appreciate you being here!
I just made these and I’m so confused! The batter was really thick and hard to spread out in the pan. They came out very dry and more of a bread texture. The top is hard and peaked up too. I cooked them for 30 minutes.I read the recipe over and over to see if I missed a step but I didn’t. What did I do wrong?? I substituted white sugar for the coconut sugar and oat flour for the almond flour. I’m so sad because I wanted to love these so much!! What did I do wrong?? Could it have been the oat flour that made them so dry? I love all of your recipes but for some reason this one just didn’t work for me. I gave it 5 stars because I really just want to ask you this question and I know I modified the recipe so I never think it’s fair to rate something on a modified recipe!
Hi Sarah – Yes, I definitely believe it was the oat flour that made them so dry. I recommend the almond flour because it is a much lighter flour, and I mentioned in the blog post that using a different flour such as oat might change the consistency of the brownie a bit. If you give these a try again, you could add a bit more pumpkin purée to help with the consistency. I would definitely recommend giving it a try again and use the almond flour (if you’re able to)!
Loving how every other recipe this month has pumpkin! I need to try this one asap!
Yess! It is definitely that time of year and we are loving it. I can’t wait to hear what you think about this recipe, Dan!
Nice treat without being overindulgent with sugar. Light and moist texture. Not too sweet.
YAY! I am so glad to hear that you are loving this recipe, Eloise. Thank you for your review & star rating, I truly appreciate it.
This is amazing. I modified it a bit – substituted Monkfruit sweetner instead of
coconut, add a scoop a vanilla protein powder and 30 ML of unsweetened almond milk. They came out really nice. Each piece at 97 cals and 7 gms protein !! Never expected pumpkin purée to taste so good lol!

I was craving a healthy chocolate snack so I gave these a try and made 2 batches so I could take them to work. They were a HIT! Nobody believed they were healthy because they didn’t taste “healthy”. A few even asked me for the recipe 😊 They will be my go to brownies from now on. Thanks so much!!
