FAQs

What Is The Best Way To Store Muffins?

Keep muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to five days or freeze them for up to three months. Thaw muffins on the counter or overnight in your refrigerator then warm them before serving if desired.

When I Say “Mix,” Do I Need To Use An Electric Mixer?

Yes and no. Using an electric mixer to mix the batter is helpful to making light and fluffy muffins that bake up perfectly every time. You can also use a wooden spoon, but it will take a little bit longer when preparing the batter for these pumpkin muffins with spice cake mix.

Is It Ok To Substitute Pumpkin For Applesauce In A Recipe?

Absolutely! You can use unsweetened applesauce in place of pumpkin to reduce the sugar content and add a hint of apple flavor.

What Do These Muffins Taste Like?

These pumpkin spice cake muffins taste like a combination of bread, cake, and pumpkin spice.
