Quick & Easy Pumpkin Spice Muffins
1 box of Duncan Hines Spice Cake Mix
1 can of pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie mixture, just straight up canned pumpkin)
1/4 c of applesauce
1/2 c toasted walnuts (optional)
Combine cake mix, applesauce and pumpkin together with a large, flat spoon - a wooden stirring one is good. Treat it like you're creaming the mix into butter, quickly, without overworking the batter. Once the ingredients are just combined, add nuts if desired. Daub into muffin cups till they are 2/3 full, and bake 18-23 minutes. If you're feeling especially splurgy, you can bake it as a cake and top it with cream cheese icing. Some of the national brands are vegan. :D
I got this recipe from a vegan buddy of mine (I'm not vegan, but it's soooo good) and most anyone will find it irresistible. I use it to sneak beta carotene into my Sithling, who is the world's finickiest child.
