Pumpkin Muffins

chankins14 · October 2011

I made the EASIEST pumpkin muffins last night & they came out SO good I feel I need to share the recipe with all of you!

1 box spice cake mix

1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin puree

Brown sugar

Mix the cake mix & pumpkin together.

Evenly distribute the batter into lined muffin pans.

Top with a bit of brown sugar.

Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees

So easy & they came out so good!! The batter is a little thick & I was tempeted to add egg or oil or both but decided to give it a try the way it was & they were PERFECT!!

A friend of mine posted this recipe on Facebook a few days ago, and I am planning on making them this weekend. I was gonna add some mini chocolate chips to them as well, just cause that sounds super yummy

so you added nothing? Just the pumpkin & cake mix? Just making sure I'm understanding correctly, as I have a HUGe craving for all things pumpkin.

I've made them too and did the chocolate chips...AMAZING! Also you can use cream cheese frosting to make them more like cupcakes

I've also made these with a box of chocolate cake mix instead of spice cake mix. The result isn't "pumpkiny", but it's a fudgy, chocolatey muffin! (I also add chocolate chips). Yum...I think I may have to make some this weekend...

I think you have to prepare the cake mix per box directions then add the pumpkin.

Nope, it really is JUST the cake mix & the pumpkin. I thought it was odd & I wanted to add the eggs & oil as if I was making the box cake but decided to follow the recipe I was given & not do it. They came out great!

Chocolate chips would be a yummy addition. Or nuts. Frosting makes EVERYTHING better in my book.

Then I stand corrected. I would have made them wrong

i made some last week too! Pretty similar recepie.

1 package of yellow cake mix

1 can pumpkin puree

a dash of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.

You just pour the mix and puree and the spices, mix it together and add a splash of water so its not too thick. That's it!! so simple... and they are super delicious

I saw this recipe but a lot of the comments said to use spice cake mix & then you don't have to add the spices. Just made it a little easier. But either way, YUMMY!!!!

I've been craving everything pumpkin lately too! I'm going to try making these this weekend! Yesterday I found pumpkin spice Eggo waffles and pumpkin flavored cream cheese at Target. Very exciting!
