2-INGREDIENT PUMPKIN SPICE MUFFINS INGREDIENTS
You’ll need:
- 15-ounce can of pumpkin puree
- 1 box Spice Cake Mix
PRO TIP:
Watch out when you are at the grocery store that you buy pure pumpkin puree and not canned pumpkin pie filling.
SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS
CAKE MIX: While it would not taste quite the same as the spice cake mix, if you prefer to use a carrot cake mix or gingerbread box of cake mix, it would give you similar spiced flavors.
PUMPKIN PIE SPICE: If you are using a boxed cake mix that is different from the spiced cake mix the recipe calls for, you could add a dash of your own pumpkin pie spice.
FROSTING: If you want to add a little something extra to these muffins. You could top them with a little cream cheese frosting, either store-bought or homemade.
HOW TO MAKE THIS 2-INGREDIENT PUMPKIN SPICE MUFFINS RECIPE
STEP ONE: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a jumbo muffin pan with muffin liners.
STEP TWO: Dump the box of spice cake mix and pumpkin puree into a large bowl.
STEP THREE: Stir to combine the cake mix and pumpkin puree.
STEP FOUR: Using a ½ cup measuring cup, portion the pumpkin spice muffin batter into the pre-lined jumbo muffin pan.
PRO TIP:
A measuring cup, cookie scoop, or ice cream scoop makes portioning muffins into muffin cups an easy task.
