Pumpkin Muffins
1 box spice cake mix
1 15 oz can pumpkin puree
Spices as desired--pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, etc would work well
Instructions:
Mix the cake mix with the pumpkin (and spices if you want those). Do not add any of the ingredients the cake mix calls for! I used a hand mixer, but you could do it by hand too. Mix till well mixed.
Scoop into a muffin tin--it made 36 mini muffins. Or do regular sized muffins.
Bake at 325 --mini muffins took 12 mins in my oven.
YUM!
Very quick and easy for last minute needs or sudden urges
This works for other cake mixes as well---I've heard that chocolate, white, or carrot cake are yummy with it, but I've only done spice cake. You'd want to leave out or change the spices depending on what cake mix you do.
PS: I put the recipe into MyFitnessPlanner app and it said each mini muffin was 48 calories, 0.5 g fat, 0.5 g fiber, 5.4 g sugar, and 0.8 g protein. Plus you get almost 30% of your Vitamin A!
