It just doesn’t get any easier than this! These muffins are made with only two ingredients: a can of pumpkin puree and a box of cake mix. That’s it. You will get a muffin that is absolutely delicious, and unbelievably moist! I couldn’t believe how gorgeous they were, too. I am big on food presentation, and these looked beautiful! Plus, they are low in fat, calories, and cholesterol, so they are definitely a healthier option than regular muffins. Easy, a better choice, and made in your kitchen–I’m in!
Ingredients
- One box flavored cake mix (I've tried Spice Cake Mix and Carrot Cake Mix so far, and both were delicious. Next on my list to try is chocolate.)
- One 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
Instructions
- Mix pumpkin and cake mix together.
- Add just 2-3 teaspoons of water if you think it is too thick.
- Spoon batter into muffin cups until they are filled equally. (You will get 12- 13 large muffins.)
- Bake for 18-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of one comes out clean.
- Do not overbake.

When you try the chocolate cake mix make sure and add a cup of chocolate chips! YUM!!!!
Wow, super easy and very tasty! Looking forward to trying other flavors
So you don’t add eggs or anything? Just the powder from the cake mix and the pumpkin?
Yes! It’s that simple!!
I’ve made pumpkin muffins this way for years. They are wonderful for school functions, quick and easy!
What a nice site. I was looking for this recipe. Thanks so much. I didn’t note an oven temp, but assumed 350. Christmas Blessings to all
Pattie, thanks for your kind words. I forgot to mention that you bake them as directed for the cake mix (follow the directions on the box).
I just made them for my kids play date today! Oh my word they were so good, and everyone loved them. Kids and parents! I did it with the spice cake mix, and it was so yummy. I think I will add chocolate chips and maybe nuts next time. Thanks for sharing this. Merry Christmas!
Oh I must add this was a good lesson in faith. I was not sure about make muffins without eggs but I went ahead and had “faith”! I’m so glad I did!
I love this recipe. I keep making them over and over again! The spice cake mix is my favorite. (and they are only 4 points plus in WW).
You can make cookies this way too. I like to add raisins, or nuts too.
This recipe sounds great! Do I need to use the regular size muffin tin or the bigger size muffin tin? Thanks so much. Kelly
Do you add the eggs for the cake mix?
Nope -just the dry cake mix & canned pumpkin. It’s that simple!!
