Canned pumpkin puree?

add it to a box of carrot cake mix or spice cake mix (the whole can) and mix (don't add anything else, no eggs no oil) then bake... and only a yummy 77 cal's a muffin too...

Are you making mini muffins? There are a few caloric differences regarding brands of cake mixes, but I have checked a lot of them, and the cake mix alone was well over 100 cals. If you have found a lower cal mix, I would love to know about it.

I make these muffins all the time when I am in a pinch: 12 muffins @ 172 calories each.

This is right from the nutrition data base on MFP and matches up with nutrition panels on the boxes.

Betty Crocker - Spice Cake Mix (mix only), 1 package 1,928 calories
Libby's - Pure Pumpkin - 15 oz Can, 1 container (1 4/5 cups ea.) 140 calories
Per Serving: 172 calories

When I do it I use a standard cupcake/muffin pan and I get 24 muffins per box of cake mix + can of pumpkin.

Does this really work without the eggs? I imagine the muffins would be kind of flat and mushy.

bump for later.

Anyone have a good recipe for making oatmeal?
