How to make pumpkin muffins with 2 ingredients:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Line 24 muffin tins with paper muffin liners. (if you want fuller size muffins, then only do 20 muffins) You can also skip the paper liners and use a silicone muffin pan. I use mine all the time and love it.
  3. In a large bowl mix pumpkin and the box of cake mix. Mix well with an electric mixer.
  4. Spoon into your cupcake pan using a large ice cream scoop. I personally have this 3 pack of cookie scoops and they are on sale right now. If you do not have a scoop you can also use a ¼ cup measuring cup to scoop the batter.
  5. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Test for doneness with a toothpick.
  6. Sprinkle with powder sugar (optional).
  7. Enjoy!

    I’ve tried the 2 ingredient full size cake recipe. The batter is dry! I even use the 29oz size pumpkin. I always add eggs, milk and almond extract to moisten the batter. If I make pumpkin muffins I will probably need more than pumpkin and a spice cake mix?

  2. 5 stars
    I made the pumpkin muffins for my family. Super easy to make and everyone loved them! For the cake mix, I found a pumpkin flavored cake mix. It turned out delicious!

  3. Instead of a spice mix, I used the banana nut mix for muffins! Yummy!
    I agree, no way can I get 24. Maybe if I used the small muffin pin?
    Easy and good.

    I was a little unsure about these, but decided to make them anyway and I really, really liked them. I didn’t mind the amount of spice in mine (I used the Betty Crocker mix). They were moist and soft and had a great flavor pumpkin spice, which was exactly what I was looking for out of these. I only got 20 muffins out of the batch and I filled the cups about 3/4 full, but I could have filled them completely since they don’t really rise. This was a great quick muffin recipe that yielded really good results for me and I’m going to keep it in my rotation for sweets.

  5. Can you freeze these? If so, how to thaw and warm up?

    Can you add an ingredient (sugar) to make them more sweet? If so, how much should I start with?

    I have made these twice now, so I feel ready to comment. Looking for something quick and easy to take to a brunch potluck, I tried this out at home first, two times. I love the easy two ingredient aspect. But I am nowhere near the 20-24 number of muffins from those ingredients. The first time I made it, I had the ice cream scoop 2/3 to 3/4 full and got about 13 muffins out of it. Way under the amount. The finished product was not as appealing to me. I love spice cake, but thought this came out with too much of a spicy aftertaste. It’s not sweet either, so I think the powdered sugar on top is more of a necessity, to add some sweetness. Also recommend a butter spread. My husband loved it, however, so I thought I’d try again. Today I made it again and tried to make the scoops more 2/3-1/2 full. I got about 17.5 muffins out of it. Again, thought it was too spicy. We like our muffins with some margarine or butter spread and it is a must with this recipe. Again, hubby loved it and couldn’t get enough. We just have different tastes.
