light brownies made from Hokkaido pumpkin

Dice the pumpkin and apples. Set half of the apple pieces aside. Now add the pumpkin pieces and the other half of the apple pieces to a saucepan with a little water. Cover and simmer until soft but not falling apart. Drain the water, let it cool, and puree until smooth. Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix. Add the margarine, agave syrup or maple syrup and the pumpkin-apple mixture and mix until a smooth batter forms. Pour the batter into a rectangular baking pan (21 x 25 cm) lined with baking paper, smooth it out, and scatter the remaining apple pieces over the batter. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (convection oven) for about 30 minutes. If the blondies get too dark, simply cover with aluminum foil. Let it cool and then cut into pieces.
