Hello Blackberry Crumble Pumpkin Bars! You have arrived to my life at a perfect time. Because, let me tell you what. Today is the first day of Fall, and I am ready for some of this season’s most comforting treats. Pumpkin, you may come into my life in all of the ways.

And since today is Friday and the weekend is right around the corner, you better believe that these cuties will be very present in my life during the next couple of days.

I mean, look how pretty they are. That purple? Oh my goodness.

But hold up, let me just describe these pumpkin bars a bit more to you guys so you can understand my obsession.

The bottom layer has a cake-y texture, think baked protein bars, but with a pumpkin pie taste to them. The layer is nice and moist, just what a good cake layer should be like.

The middle layer, the blackberry & blueberry layer, is fruity and rich. It adds a ton of moisture and a good balance to the bars. It’s tarty nature balances the sweetness of the bottom layer, and these two are basically a match made in heaven.

The last layer, the top nutty layer, is made out of a combination of pecans, coconut, honey and spices. They add a wonderful crunch to every bite, as the pecans and coconut got slightly toasted from their time in the oven.

Now you get why these bars are my everything right now. Notes of cinnamon, sweet pumpkin, berries, maple, toasty nuts? Yes please. I may just hoard these all for myself, and only give a single fork-full to my husband. But maybe a better option (a more generous one) is to make another full batch of these yummies, right? So that we both get a healthy share of it, because sharing is caring.

These Blackberry Crumble Pumpkin Bars are naturally gluten free thanks to the coconut flour, and processed-sugar free thanks to the oh-so glorious maple syrup and honey. The pumpkin, the berries and the coconut give us an array of vitamins and minerals, which will feed our bodies and keep us strong. Gotta love a delicious treat, full of color, flavor and nutrients. They are also made with collagen peptides, so our bars contain protein too. Collagen is amazing for our joints, ligaments, bones, hair, hair, skin, nails…and for our gut health, digestion and sleep. It’s no joke my all time favorite supplement and I try to take it every day.

If you haven’t tried collagen yet, I recommend you do. It’s a super easy way to stay youthful and healthy. Two scoops a day (either in your coffee, smoothie, tea, salad dressings or treats) and you’re set!
