Pumpkin Spice Muffins
Ingredients:
1 box of spiced cake mix, such as Krusteaz Pumpkin Spice bread mix
14 oz pumpkin puree
3 tbsp granulated sugar
1.5 tsp cinnamon
Optional, but worth it (to me)
flax seed
ground chia seed
vanilla protein powder
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350F, or whatever the cake mix instructions outline.
In a large bowl, ix the boxed cake mix with the pumpkin puree. Don’t over mix, a few streaks of the cake mix is fine.
Add in the optional add-in, if using, and mix to combine.
Spray a muffin tin with non-stick spray or line with muffin liners. Divide the batter evenly in the muffin cups.
In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and the cinnamon and sprinkle generously over the tops of the muffins.
Bake for 12-15 mins for mini muffins, 20-25 for regular sized muffins. Check the boxed instructions.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 mins in the muffin tins before enjoying.
