How to Make 3 Ingredient Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the pumpkin puree until smooth.
  3. Add the pumpkin spice cake mix and oil to the mashed pumpkin. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  5. Bake for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Once cooled, frost and decorate as desired (optional).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
