Cake Mix Pumpkin Muffins Or Bread Recipe 455

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Completely mix pumpkin and dry cake mix. Spoon batter into cupcake tins, filling them about 3/4 full. The batter is pretty dense and does not settle so if you care about how the final product looks, you may want to smooth the tops of each muffin before baking. I just use a spoon. Bake for 25 minutes. NOTES: For variety, these are some optional ingredients that can be added - nuts, raisins, cranberries, chocolate chips I also like to mix in about a half of a cup to a whole cup (I don't measure so this is a guess) of sour cream for a heavier finish. It also makes them especially moist. For more flavor, I usually sprinkle in pumpkin spice, clover, and nutmeg with a dash of my homemade vanilla. Can also be used to make small bread loaves, but you'll have to check for doneness because depending upon the size of pan they while need to bake longer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
• Mix spice cake mix, pumpkin puree, and cinnamon chips together in a bowl until cake mix is completely moistened; add nuts and stir. Spoon the batter into prepared muffin cups to about 2/3-full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Combine the spice cake mix and the pumpkin puree in a large bowl. Divide the batter between the lined muffin cups (mixture will be thick). Bake until a toothpick inserted near the center of a muffin comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm with lots of butter.
