A few posts back, I posted one of my all time favorite recipes for Pumpkin Muffins. Since then, my daughter told me about a recipe she had seen online for "2 Ingredient Muffins." It's basically a cake mix, a can of pumpkin and some water. EASY. And they actually taste good. (Not as good as my recipe with the fat, of course! But still very good.)
1 box spice cake mix (Gluten-Free Option: I used Betty Crocker Gluten Free Yellow Cake Mix instead of spice cake and added my own cinnamon and cloves, about 1/2 teaspoon each. You could also use Pumpkin Pie spice.)
1 can pumpkin
1/2 cup water (This is approximate! One recipe I've seen called for one cup of water, and another didn't call for water at all, so I compromised. I think one full cup would be too much - you just need enough to thin the batter a bit.)
Combine ingredients and spoon into greased and floured (or spray with Baker's Joy) cupcake tins until about 2/3 full. Bake at 350 degrees. Check in about 17 minutes for regular size muffins.
(I made a few with paper baking cups, but the muffins stuck to the paper, so I preferred not to use them for the rest. They came out great when the tins were sprayed with Baker's Joy instead.)
Give them a try and let me know how you like them.
Yum, yum, yum!!! I love pumpkin everything and this recipe sounds delightful. . .thanks for sharing! By the way, I LOVE your new blog design and header. . .beautiful! Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThey look delicious! I try to reduce fat by replacing some or all of the oil with applesauce in a recipe. I'll have to pass this on to my friend who needs gluten free recipes. Thanks! Happy Holidays!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jan Marie and Caren! Caren, I will have to try the applesauce as a fat replacement. I keep forgetting about that! Thanks for the compliment on my new blog design, Jan Marie!
ReplyDeleteThese look great! I love pumpkin. I love the background and your header.

ReplyDeleteSounds great and reminds me of a weight watcher recipe I used to make years ago.
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris--yes they are really good.
ReplyDeleteKaren--Yes, the version with the added water was from Weight Watchers. Thanks for visiting!
