Cake Mix Pumpkin Muffins

I usually make some sort of quick bread or muffin for Sunday morning breakfast as they make for a great on-the-go meal. I will admit sometimes it just takes too much time with measuring everything, so when I came across this recipe for pumpkin muffins using a boxed cake mix I just had to give it a try. They turned out really good and were definitely faster.

• 1 box spice cake mix
• 1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
• 1 cup water

I did decide to beef up the recipe by adding the following optional ingredients:

• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons ground flax seed meal
• 2 tablespoons wheat germ
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Directions

1. Throw everything in a large mixing bowl, stir until thoroughly combined. 
2. Spoon into greased muffin tins and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
