2 Ingredient Pumpkin Muffins
Description
The 2 Ingredient Pumpkin Muffins use pure pumpkin puree mixed directly with spice cake mix to form a thick batter. The simplicity of combining just these two ingredients produces muffins with a soft, moist texture and the familiar flavors of pumpkin and warming spices found in the cake mix. Baking in a muffin tin lined with paper cups encourages even cooking and easy removal.
These muffins bake at 375°F for about 18 to 20 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cooling before serving allows the muffins to set properly. The recipe also suggests adjusting batter thickness by adding water if a lighter texture is desired and mentions the possibility of making mini muffins with shorter baking time.
Storing muffins in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator extends freshness up to a week, and they can be frozen for up to 6 months when wrapped properly.
Ingredients
- 1 ounce pumpkin puree
- 1 spice cake mix boxed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375° F and line a 12 cup muffin tin with muffin liners.
- In a large bowl, combine dry cake mix and pumpkin puree. Using an electric mixer, beat just until well combined.
- Divide mixture evenly between the muffin liners using a cookie scooper. Mixture will be thick. Smooth down the top of the muffin batter using the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean from the middle of the muffin. Cool for 10 minutes then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerated for up to 1 week.
- For longer storage, freeze muffins in a ziplock bag for up to 6 months.
- Add ½ to 1 cup water to the batter if you prefer less dense muffins; do not follow cake mix package instructions.
- This recipe works for mini muffins; reduce baking time to 8-10 minutes for smaller sizes.
