-
Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Grease a 15x10x1-inch baking pan; set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl stir together the flour, baking powder, orange peel,
baking
soda, and salt. Set the flour mixture aside.
-
In a medium bowl combine eggs and brown sugar. Stir in pumpkin, oil, milk, and
vanilla. Then stir in carrots and chopped walnuts.
-
Add egg mixture to flour mixture, stirring with a wooden spoon until combined.
-
Spread batter into the prepared pan.
-
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center
comes out clean.
-
Cool in pan on a wire rack. Spread with Orange Icing; cut into triangles or
bars. If desired, garnish each with a walnut half.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
For Orange Icing: In a mixing bowl combine powdered sugar and enough of
the orange liqueur or orange juice to make an icing that is easy to drizzle.
Make-Ahead Tip: Bake bars as directed; cool completely. Do not drizzle
with icing. Place cut bars in a freezer container and freeze for up to 1 month.
Before serving, thaw for 15 minutes. Prepare Orange Icing and drizzle as
directed.
