I’ve seen recipes floating around for easy pumpkin muffins and pumpkin cookies using yellow cake mix, but those require that you spice up (i.e. MORE ingredients needed) the mix.

Starting with a box of spice cake mix cuts down on the ingredients needed. That’s especially true when using the gingerbread cake mix. It’s full of pumpkin pie spice inspired flavors. All that’s needed is the canned pumpkin. (Oh, and 2 eggs plus a little water.)

It may not be the time of year to start celebrating all things pumpkin just yet. But who can argue that great ideas with simple ingredients are worth making year-round?

Can I make 3-ingredient pumpkin muffins with this recipe instead?

I haven’t tested this in a muffin tin, but I suspect it would work really well. Be sure to divide the batter evenly, and watch the time starting at around 30 minutes.
