Oh John, at least you end up remembering the sugar. I will forever be reminded by my little brother about the one Thanksgiving when I decided to make the pumpkin pie from scratch, roasting the sugar pumpkin, making the crust and designing autumnal leaves for the pie edge. I checked the pie 30 mins in to make sure the crust was not over baking, covered it with foil, then turning around to see the measured out sugar sitting on the counter! It looked amazing but tasted terrible. I remember my little brother, insistent on trying it, sprinkling sugar over his slice, it didn't help. To this day, the Thanksgiving slogan is "...and remember the sugar!"

I can certainly relate! My big goof up (not with pumpkin pie) was with a 2 layered cake I was supposed to bring for a cake walk game for a Halloween carnival for our jr. high. I made the cake, it was fine. Then... I put the frosting on, and forgot to frost between the 2 layers! I don't know what alerted me to that; but I was horrified! My dad was home that day from work, and he came up with a plan. He said to go ahead and take it anyway! He said he would finish frosting it on top, and put a decoration on it. He said it could be a little Halloween prank! So I did; it wouldn't have hurt anyone anyway. No one knew who brought it, and I'll never know who won it, or what they thought of it! I still remember it 55 years later!

I love how don't edit out the "mistakes" that makes me feel that I am not the only one that does things like that. LOL THANK YOU.DON'T EVER CHANGE THAT.

I made the recipe and we really loved it. I only had a 9x12 pan and it was done in 30 minutes. Also I used 2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. I added walnuts to the frosting 😋

i loved seeing the little mistakes or when things just don’t go the way you expected, it felt so real and strangely calming

That spice drawer. 😍. And yes, baking is like that for most of us. I’m glad you kept it real. 🌈💜

I simply LOVE how you show you also sometimes screw up. For many people like me it is really encouraging to try recipes again and not going into an emotional spiral of "everyone-can-bake-accept-me-I'm-a-screw-up!" And seeing you not making a huge deal out of it is even more heartwarming, because it makes me see someone else's coping mechanism and helps me not to panic. Thank you for being you :)

I love the way this video is made) It's not this image of.. perfectly perfect perfection, instead it shows the REAL you. And it's immensely enjoyable to watch since you really are a great person ))

My whole family is so glad I discovered your channel! My kiddos are in college so when they happen to “stop by” whenever they know I’m making something of yours, I love it! I’ve made the orange chicken, chicken tetrazzini, fish tacos, snickerdoodle cookies, sour cream cookies, apple fritters and tomorrow I’m making your butter chicken. Thank you!! I cannot say enough about how delicious your recipes are!

I've watched this for 5 times now. I'll definitely make this for the holidays. I've been baking lots of your recipes and I love every single one of them! So excited to make this for the family! Thank you, John! 💙

I made these with my 8 year old son today and they turned out amazing! We love watching your channel together! ❤️

John, my favorite cooks are the ones like you, who show the mistakes, AND how to fix it! It removes all the anxiety from those, like me, who would otherwise FREAK OUT if we miss a step. So, THANK YOU for raising REAL! I absolutely ADORE you and your channel! ❤❤❤

Love how you always show how to "hack" pan sizes when you don't have it on hand. Helps me so much

I love how genuine your kitchen experiences are. I cannot talk and bake because I’ll mess it up. Cooking absolutely but not baking.

I love the idea of making your pan smaller by using foil! Shows that you don't always need a big variety of pans to make things work :)

I'm a simple man... I see a new video by Preppy Kitchen, I watch it.

Made these yesterday and brought them into work this morning. Big hit. I just need to figure out how to cover something like this without the cover smushing into the frosting. Using Preppy Kitchen recipes is getting me a reputation as a pretty good baker here at work. Thanks, John.

I made this 2 days ago for Thanksgiving yesterday and it turned out amazing. 3 people asked me for the recipe so of course I sent them the link 😄 I didn't have all spice, so I used pumpkin spice instead and had to use vegetable oil bc I was out of olive oil... still turned out very good! Thanks 😊

I love fall baking!! It's so cozy and warm ❤️ thank you for these recipes and please keep them coming!!

These are EXACTLY what fall calls for... cozy and gooey. Looks fantastic!

This is my absolute favorite recipe of all time. I get so many requests for these from friends and family for EVERY event. I think I've sent people this recipe about 100 times lol In mine I add some black pepper, ground cloves, and a little pumpkin pie spice (even though it's the same as adding a little more of all these spices) because why not.

Thanks for sharing John !! Your family is lucky to have such an amazing baker in the house !! ❤🤗

I've never laughed out loud at a cooking video, until today. The honesty is so refreshing

In bed tonight drinking a large glass of Shiraz and decompressing watching you bake, giggle, mess up, giggle again all the while making me forget my troubles! Sending you and your little family hugs from Texas and a big Thank You!!

I only can say my dear John, you makes me love so much more the kitchen😍 Thank you for been a Great Teacher😊

My mother in law made pumpkin pies for Thanksgiving one year and forgot the sugar. We were all very nice and never said a word to her. We just added extra cool whip and it was almost easy to choke down.

Just made this today as a Christmas gift for a friend, and they came out amazing! The cake is super soft and fluffy, perfect texture! And I personally love cream cheese frosting. Thanks for the great recipe John!

Never heard of a pumpkin bar! Goodness this looks delicious.

I get my pumpkin bars from my local co-op and it’s vegan and gluten free and are the best pumpkin bars I’ve ever had! I wish they’d share the recipe 😂😭

One Pie brand pumpkin purée, a New England brand & staple is my absolute favorite! The canning company was founded in the early 19th century in the tiny town of Waldoboro Maine (very near my hometown) & the recipe & label hasn’t changed in over 50 years. So it’s a huge nostalgia hit for me.

I made these for my coworkers, and everyone loved them! I added mini chocolate chips to the batter at the end. Thank you so much!

I love and appreciate your honesty when it comes to your mistakes! It makes me feel so much better about my errors.

OMG! I love all your advice and how you actually show step by step instruction. Thank You so much! Keep uploading!!!!!!

Virgo myself, I have made that mistake myself. Good to see I am not alone. Love the fall and all the pumpkin treats. Your the best

JUST made this! Our kids devoured their bar in under 30seconds and are on the hunt for more! Thank you!

I needed that moment of Zen! Because when I attempt to make this I'm gonna need all the zen I can get! My aunt's used to make these on family gatherings, crazy good recipe. Thanks for all the advice! Not a baker, a cooker, this is great! Thanks!

It's so nice to see someone else gets caught up in other things and forget to do things while cooking :)

I keep rewinding it to "wait a second." The moment of realization is hilarious! We all mistakes. I love your transparency.

When I thought I would relax after work today. Nope. I needed to make pumpkin bars because I have everything to make it. They came out delicious! I lightly mixed the ingredients like you said & the cake is so fluffy. Thanks for the recipe!

I made these bars today to bring to my team at work, and they are a hit! The only ingredient I did not have was cream cheese, so I used your buttercream frosting recipe instead and they are equally as dreamy. I love how incredibly moist the bars are.

I made mine with Buttercream Frosting too; and I agree, very good bars.

It is absolutely lovely that you show mistakes! Another thing I love is that you give the amount of ingredients in cups and gramms. Last one is necessary for me in Germany. Can't remember that I ever got a baking book with cups or that we use it here. Only very old family recepice from my grandma have it sometimes in it.

So i made these, but gluten free and they turned out so good ❤️ my dad and brother can’t stop eating them 😄😄 honestly the frosting is too sweet for me, the cake by itself is just sooo good. But my dad loves cream cheese frosting so thanks ❤️

Love how down to earth you are...you are so good at baking and show us tips if we don't have a certain oil or a cake pan we can improvise....love watching your videos 😉

Gosh…I love you! It’s so refreshing that you chose to leave the *snafu segment* in your final video! It’s what makes you, YOU and why we all love you! 💖✨

I made these yesterday and they are wonderful! Thank you for the recipe, i used my own pumpkin puree, and added a lemon zest to frosting.

I love watching preppy kitchen for the laughs… pure comedy. Also great recipes

Something I like to do now that I've discovered it is mixiing molasses into my granulated sugar when it's time to bake with brown sugar. You can choose whether to make light or dark brown sugar instead of buying different varieties of brown sugar and because you're using it instantly, you don't get lumps or have to break apart stubborn bricks of dark brown sugar

I also did your banana bread and I always use it whenever we want - I probably baked 8 times of it by now and I didn't want any other recipe I think this is the best. I can't wait to bake this pumpkin bread I'm sure it's also very good thank you so much for sharing these recipes!

John, by far you are my favorite. Love all your recipes even the ones I just watch and don’t make.

John, I love you! You’re so human, which we all are!!! You’re channel is so amazing 😻

Ditto to all of the comments about your sugar mixup! I love that you didn’t just start over! We do this while baking too, and can’t always afford to scrap the first batch and start over! 👏🏽

This looks sooo good! Can’t wait to give it a try! 🥰 last week for my fall themed baby shower, i did 2 loafs of the pumpkin bread (using your recipe, of course) and it was a hit! 🙌🏻🤍 can’t wait to add this one onto my go-to desserts ☺️

Just made these and they are delicious. Easy to make and shared with 3 families in the neighborhood. Great Sunday evening treat. Thank you!

Thank you John for your videos. Made my first ever pumpkin bar and it was a hit at work! You make me a more confident baker!

Just got done making these and WOW! Best pumpkin bars I've ever tasted!!!!!!!

We used to get these at school growing up and it was topped with a layer of powdered sugar ♡ I loved it so much and everyone gave me theirs :3

Just watched your lemon playlist and I’m in love! I grew too many pie pumpkins last fall and am still making purée. I need to make these pumpkin bars with homemade purée.

I love your realness!! You’re so relatable😊 Love all your videos. These pumpkin bars look DELISH!!

I like making this type of thing as a cake. I always use cloves in addition to the others. I also sprinkle ground cloves on top to cut the sugar.

I just stumbled on to your channel and I’m binching all your fall videos. I’m so happy to see a professional baker make mistakes, it gives me hope, since I’m forgetting all my ingredients all the time or doing it in the wrong order 😄

I made these for a get together this week and they turned out amazing!!! Thank you for another absolutely delicious recipe!!!

I just made these! I substituted date sugar and homemade oat flour so I can stay on my diet, I also used powdered Swerve for the frosting!

I had to watch this video the first time without sound because I was in an awkward listening situation. I never realized how animated and expressive you are John. I have watched many performances with American Sign language and you gave a very animated performance. I was dying to watch it with the sound to find out what had happened with the brown sugar. Another wonderful recipe. Love your cream cheese frosting. This will be a nice addition to our Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend.

I made these and I ate them for breakfast with coffee . Absolutely amazing! Thank you!

💞 that spice drawer!!!! OMG. I would love that.

I just love your videos...warm,witty and educational. I laughed out loud when you gave us the exact gram weight for the flour, and then corrected your mistake by taking out a handful! You have the knack of making us comfortable and relaxed, and reassured. Hope the boys had a great Halloween! Thanks...
