Oh my. If only I was a resident of the US!!!!! This peanut butter sounds amazing, as do these blondies, as does that PEANUT BUTTER PUMPKIN SPICE LATTE recipe! Ah!
I’m a total peanut butter fiend and you’ve got me drooling all over my work desk Alice. Totally worth all the exercise to burn off the extra deliciousness 😉 Gorgeous post xx
haha, thank you Laura! and yes, totally worth all the exercise! for sure!
I love peanut butter and pumpkin, but never considered pairing them together. I’ve been loving pumpkin spice smoothies lately!
I absolutely love pumpkin, especially during this time of year; and especially in desserts like blondies and ice cream.
I love peanut butter and I love pumpkin but I have never tried the two of them together. If I love both though I should love them together too
Oh my gosh, you guys in America are soooo lucky with all the cool stuff you can buy. I live the UK and the most exciting peanut butter we can purchase is chocolate! These blondies look wonderful!!
Thank you so much, Laura!!! I wish I could ship some of this peanut butter to you!
I love all things pumpkin and I love that it represents fall!
I have no good tips because I am not a famous celebrity like you. 🙂 But I will say remember that you deserve to be where you are, and have the natural confidence that comes from that! I’d been following your blog for a while when my sister-in-law mentioned Hip Foodie Mom in passing, and I was like, hey, I know her! And a lot of other people do, too!
I’d eat these all day. And maybe all night. They have so many of my favorite things packed inside!
Mir, you are too sweet. . and HA! I am far from that but you know how to make a girl feel special 😛 thank you!!!
Is there a way to un-see this? Cause I’m in serious trouble now… Must. Have. ASAP. Always been a huge fan of peanut butter with pumpkin, then you go and add some chocolate to the mix. Trouble, trouble, trouble.
Good luck and have fun with the videos! Just channel the most confident, friendly, outgoing person you know and pretend it’s you while the cameras are rolling 🙂
haha, great advice! thank you Kathryn!!
pumpkin peanut butter? Where has this been all my life? Love it!
*long drawn out gasp* I NEED!!!
I always have some pumpkin puree in my pantry and freezer. I bake muffins, bread, cookies, cakes, and pies with it, and make pumpkin butter to freeze and spread on toast. I Love pumpkin, and the fragrance of baking with it.
Oh that’s so exciting, Alice! I can’t wait to hear more about your projects! And that peanut butter, oh man. Pumpkin spice anything is my favorite! These blondies look fantastic, especially with the banana in here!
Pumpkin spice peanut butter!?! Say what? That is sheer genius. And then you went and made blondies out of it, too. Amazing! These bars scream Fall, pumpkin, changing leaves, crisp air…all the best things about the season. Well done!
My life has officially been completed.
I drool over pumpkin. I didn’t grow up eating pumpkin pie (it wasn’t custom in my culture) but once I tasted it, it was all over for any other pie filling!!!! The Fall is the best time for it too because you can go pumpkin picking and not only do I have a myriad of recipes I use it in but also decorate my entire house with them.
Fall recipes are around our home, too and this blondies is perfect for breakfast or tea time. And video? I can’t wait to see it!
Yay Alice, so happy and excited for you! 🙂 Good luck and don’t worry girl, you will totally knock their socks off! Love that you made these chocolate chip banana blondies with the new pumpkin spice PB. I would be sneaking a bite here and there all day long, they look incredible!!
I love pumpkin in everything!!!
Now that pumpkin season has officially begun… truth be told I grab a pumpkin pie each and every time I go to Costco. 😉
Two of my favs togeter – YUM!!!!!!!! I look forward to FALL season cause that = PUMPKINS and cider mills for me. It has such a rich flavor and so many recipes to include it in.
Well now I know what I’m baking tonight. This peanut butter looks like Heaven in a jar. Peanut butter is seriously my life.
I love peanut butter & pumpkin spice, so this is perfect! Pumpkin spice, like pb, lends it self to so many delicious things! I say Pumpkin All The Things!
I love the idea of pumpkin spice peanut butter!! Also all the best with your exciting projects, can’t wait to see! 🙂
I actually really love roasted pumpkin, but can’t resist pumpkin baked goods either! Pumpkin oatmeal cookies are one of my favorites.
The only reason I exercise is so I can eat blondies! Lol. Cannot wait to see you on camera – you’re going to rock it!
Thank you so much, Amy!!!
This bar looks fabulous!! Pumpkin should be used all year round in my opinion! So delicious. I adore the crap filled pumpkin spice coffee creamers, but figure if I allow myself to use a bottle once a year it’s not that bad lol. This pb sounds amazing!
Oh my goodness. I need to find some of that peanut butter!!! They look awesome.
Ph good golly, Alice I love pumpkin and I love pumpkin spice and I love peanut butter – and don’t even get me started on blondies – and you put them ALL together!!!! Mercy me! Today is one of those days I am glad there’s a screen between me and those blondies because otherwise …snap your fingers…and the blonides would disappear…into MA BELLY!!! 🙂
Pumpkin is one of those foods that you just have to have in the fall. The best part is that it can be used in so many wonderful recipes like your blondies.
I LOVE Pumpkin!
These look fantastic!!
These looks fabulous- gotta try that PB! Pinning 🙂
I love pumpkin so much that it doesn’t matter what time of year it is. It’s ALWAYS a good time to eat pumpkin treats & eats!
I love pumpkin so much that I went to Target the other day and loaded up on ALL pumpkin things!
I love pumpkin! I try 5-10 new recipes with pumpkin each fall. I NEED this new PB!!
You are one busy lady, and the videos sound so exciting! These blondies look exciting too — I’d definitely need to exercise more with these around! 🙂
Wow can’t wait to try these! Pumpkin is just one reason fall is my fav season 🙂
Great recipe! Totally need to try this at home one of these days cause it sure does looks yummy! 😀
I love Peanut Butter but i haven’t tried Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter.. yet! And im totally looking forward to try it… soon. lol 😀
I am totally obsessed with baking with pumpkin during the Autumn season, no lie. When it is difficult to find on the shelves of the grocery stores during the Spring and Summer, I have definitely felt bummed and had no choice but to order a case of cans off of Amazon!
I love pumpkin and especially pumpkin desserts!
These blondies are perfection, Alice! I’ve got to track down a jar of that PB!
I saw that they have pumpkin spice peanut butter and have been looking for it! These bars look so delicious, pumpkin and chocolate just go together so perfectly.
How exciting! I can’t wait to see your videos. You’ll do great! As for these pumpkin blondies, who could resist!
I love pumpkin so much! I love this time of year when all the new pumpkin spice flavored foods are coming out. I’ve already found some great cookies and a greek yogurt that I’m obsessed with!
How fun? So happy for you Alice, good luck with the videos! This peanut butter tastes amazing and the blondies look perfect! Pinned!
I love pumpkin a lot, for it’s creamy richness, for being able to go savory or sweet, and for all the pies it lets me eat 🙂
I love pumpkin!! I love baking anything pumpkin during the fall!! ?
Pumpkin is one of the best things about the coming of autumn. But since canned pumpkin is so good, there’s no reason not to enjoy it all year round, really. Pumpkin bread, in particular, is a favorite in our house any time!
I love pumpkin so much that I clear a special shelf so that I have room when the canned pumpkin goes on sale – way too expensive here to make homemade. PS time is my absolute favorite time of the year.
Gosh girl this looks so sensational. I love that you are channeling your Oprah. You will have a blast!!! Also these look sensational, great fall flavors!
I love pumpkin and I can’t wait to sink my teeth into the first pumpkin pie of the season. Bring on the pumpkin peanut butter!!! 🙂
I love all of the flavors that Peanut Butter + Co has. Looking forward to checking out this fall-theme one! And then making and eating this whole tray of blondies. By myself. No sharing!
I actually JUST had a blondie for my first time, and now I am OBSESSED with them! That pumpkin spice and chocolate AND banana combo is BANGING! Pinned!
Omg, SO excited for you, Alice!!! I can’t wait to see the videos! I have no good advice for you though, because I’m like the most awkward person EVER! I’d totally fidget too much, pause entirely too often and I’m sure every other word out of my mouth would be “ummm” followed by an awkward giggle. But you got this girl! Your poised and tres chic (not to mention fit!)- I am positive you are going to kill it!! Now blondies are my jam and peanut butter rocks my world, so these little bars are HEAVEN! That blend of peanut butter sounds fantastic! Can’t wait to try these! Pinned! Cheers, lovely lady!
Does it get any better than pumpkin spice peanut butter? I don’t think so. These brownies are phenomenal!
I have got to get my hands on some of that! Looks so, so good! Congrats on the projects too! Can’t wait to see them!
Can we just stop and gasp at pumpkin pie spice peanut butter. And these blondies – amazing!! They look just too yummy!! Yay for your new project, it sounds amazing! Can’t wait to hear how it goes!!
I eat peanut butter every single day!
Yum, blondie’s with that autumn kick! Great recipe and photos. Running to the store now to find that pumpkin spice!
this peanut butter is seriously amazing!! Good luck with the videos!
HAHA–I laughed out loud when I read the “reason” why you’ve been exercising like crazy. Lady, you definitely deserve it! Go you, and go those AWESOME flavors, you superstar!!
These sound wonderful Alice and I am looking for this at my next grocery trip!
OMG I haven’t seen this peanut butter yet!! These bars sound PERFECT! Headed to the top of my list of things to bake for fall!! Thanks for sharing Alice!
I wish I could try that new PB flavour! Yum! It sounds so amazing! These bars look delicious, Alice!
I can’t say I have always been a fan of pumpkin, but I do love the pumpkin spice lattes. 😀
We love pumpkin a lot at our house. I make pumpkin pies – 2 at a a time – and they will be gone in a few days. The guys like cold pumpkin pie for breakfast!
Alice!! I can’t wait to see what you’ve been up to — It sounds super exciting! I am a big time blondie lover but pumpkin spice and peanut butter?! Amazing!
I love pumpkin with spices in pumpkin pie and quick bread but also love calabasa (pumpkin) as chunks in soups and stews.
I absolutely adore pumpkin. So much so that I had a pumpkin spice wedding cake 🙂
I love it so much that I stockpile pumpkin products during the Fall, so that I can enjoy the flavors all year round 😉
I love pumpkin spice flavor. This is my favorite season of the year due to this flavor!
I am totally pumpkin spice crazy, I love it so much I get excited about when its still summer because I cant wait to start baking. hahahahaha I also love using pumpkin and squash all year around. 😀
I love most pumpkin desserts, and soups. Tasty and healthy.
I absolutely love pumpkin. i love pumpkin muffins, pumpkin pie, just about anything pumpkin.
I love pumpkin recipes so much that my family gets a little “over it” by the end of Fall. But we all get a little giddy every year when our local ice cream shop “Shivers & Shakes” posts the sign saying PUMPKIN SHAKES ARE BACK!
I am a totally pumpkin addict. I am always trying new pumpkin recipes and cannot wait to try this as well.
Your projects sound really interesting, Alice! Hope everything going smoothly and nicely! In a meanwhile, I’m excited too – the pumpkin season has started! Thank you for sharing these delicious blondies. They look and sounds fantastic! Definitely pinned!
I *like* pumpkin quite a bit but my boyfriend and sister are CRAZY about it (and I would love to share with them)!

Oh, my gosh—such exciting things ahead for you, Alice!! And these blondies are definitely would definitely be worth a little more gym time 🙂
Pumpkin is awesome, it makes a great breakfast (oatmeal), lunch (bread), dinner (mixed in a variety of dishes), dessert (pie) and my kids favorite snack (pumpkin seeds). It’s such a versatile food that tastes great!
I absolutely love Peanut Butter & Co.! I had no idea that there was a pumpkin version available. I’m totally going to hunt some down and make these blondies!
Everything about these blondies is magical. I will definitely try the pumpkin spice peanut butter!

I love pumpkin everything! I eat pumpkin every day with my breakfast and many times with my dessert. This looks delicious and mixing it with peanut butter- also another daily favorite- is genius
I anticipate all things pumpkin every year when this season is about to embark! 🙂
I always pegged myself as a sweet potato pie woman until my daughter begged me to buy a pumpkin pie.I’ve been hooked every since

I drive my family crazy with all my pumpkin stuff! Absolutely love it! From drinks drinks to muffins, cookies, pie, smoothies…we even tried savory pumpkin soup for the first time last week. Delicious!
I love everything pumpkin. Not the artificial flavorings but products with real pumpkin. I even make treats for my dog using pumpkin. So glad it’s that time of year although I use it year round. Excited to try this new peanut butter and other products coming out.
Pumpkin lover to the max! I buy pumpkin bagels, nut butters, waffles, and just about anything else I see in stores during the season. Proud to say I’m a white girl who loves her PSL! 🙂

I love pumpkin recipes. Last year, my mom and i found a pumpkin snicker doodle recipe that we fell in love with. This year we might at white chocolate chips to it, but I can’t wait to try your recipe. I just picked up my first 😉 jar of pumpkin spice peanut butter today. Most definitely won’t be my last of the season.
I’ve been eye balling these blondies all over social media and I had to finally come and get a closer look. These blondies sound out of this world delicious! If it was me, I’d probably have to live at the gym because I would have made three batches and kept them all to myself. Needless to say, this is going to be my daughter’s and my weekend baking project.
YUMmmmmmm.
these look incred!
Anything w/ pumpkin makes me drool! x
Such an exciting time for you! Yah! Can’t wait to see where this all leads you Alice. As for these pumpkin blondies – who could resist!
Thank you so much, Jeanette!!
I didn’t have pumpkin peanut butter so I subbed for 1/4 cup pumpkin puree, 1/4 cup honey peanut butter and cinnamon and nutmeg. The batter is delicious. I can’t wait to try the finished product.
Hi Rachel,
Sounds fabulous!!! Happy Holidays!!
Hello,
I can’t seem to find the Pumkin Spice PB yet and I want to make these tomorrow for a friend of mine and her family. Her friends are all taking turns making meals for them because they just had their 3rd child (first girl) last week. I have the actual spice, Pumkin Spice, and I have peanut butter. Do you think I can use the 1/4 cup of peanut butter and add some of the spice to it?
Hi Stacy!! yes, you can try that! Taste and add more pumpkin pie spice if needed. Let me know how it turns out!
