Ingredients

  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree (just plain pumpkin -- NOT the canned pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) Box Spice Cake Mix (I like Duncan Hines brand)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray or line with baking cups. If using paper liners, I suggest that you give the paper liners a little spritz of nonstick spray as well, just to prevent any sticking. In a large bowl, use a spatula to fold together pumpkin and dry cake mix.
  2. Then I like to use an electric mixer to make sure that the batter is fluffy and completely combined. It will be thick! You can do this all by hand, but it will just take longer.
  3. Use a scoop to fill prepared muffin pan with batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in pan for about 5 minutes and then remove muffins to a wire rack to finish cooling.
  4. These freeze really well, so store in an airtight container or a zip-top bag in the freezer and just thaw as necessary.

Notes

  • This recipe yields approximately 12 standard-size muffins or approximately 30 mini muffins.
  • For mini muffins, decrease the baking time to about 8-10 minutes.
