Topping:
- 3 Tbsp raw cacao powder
- 2 Heaped Tbsp coconut oil

Method:
- For the base, add the oats into a food processor and blitz to form a fine flour.
- Stir through the flour, eggs, salt and pepper to create a rough dough/pancake like mixture.
- Add in the honey and coconut oil, then blend again so that everything sticks together.
- Line a baking dish with grease proof paper and press the oat mixture into the base of the tin to form a smooth base. Pop this into the freezer.
- Combine all of the pumpkin pie filling ingredients in the food processor and blend thoroughly so that you're left with a smooth, velvety caramel.
- Spread this over the base and return the bars to the freezer.
- To make the chocolate topping, gently melt the coconut oil and honey together, then stir through the cacao powder and a pinch of salt.
- Put this over the top of the caramel layer, then allow the bars to set in the freezer for 5hrs+.
- To slice into squares, dip a sharp knife into boiling water before cutting to prevent the chocolate from cracking.
