Ingredients For Weight Watchers Pumpkin Muffins
- Box of cake mix - You'll want a sugar-free cake mix. I used yellow cake mix, but a sugar-free chocolate cake mix would work as well.
- Can of pumpkin - Pureed pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling.
- Cinnamon - I love the warmth that cinnamon adds to these muffins. Feel free to substitute pumpkin pie spice.
How to Make Weight Watcher Pumpkin Muffins With Cake Mix
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl.
Make sure to mix until all of the ingredients have been fully incorporated.
Grease a muffin pan with cooking spray and fill up each of the muffin cups with ¼ cup of the batter mixture.
To test for doneness, when the cooking time has ended, insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin. If the toothpick comes out clean, the muffins are ready.
When they are done baking, remove them from the oven and the muffin tins and place them on a cooling rack to cool.
These 5 ingredient pumpkin muffins are absolutely delicious and at 3 smart points each, they make a great breakfast when paired with fruit. I also enjoy them as a snack or dessert.
Tips For Making WW Pumpkin Muffins
Tip 1: This Weight Watchers pumpkin muffin recipe makes 15 muffins, so I generally use a 12 count muffin pan and a 6 count muffin pan so I can cook the batch at the same time.
Tip 2: Since this uses sugar-free cake mix, you will want to limit your consumption of the muffins to 1-2 a day. Sugar-free cake mix contains sugar alcohols which could have a laxative effect when taken in large quantities.
Tip 3: You can also you muffin liners for easier cleanup.
What Can I Serve With Pumpkin Muffins?
These muffins are great with fresh fruit, such as sliced apples or berries, on the side. Fruit doesn't add any points so it's a good choice. If you are looking to serve these with some protein, Greek yogurt, low-fat cottage cheese or a boiled egg work to make an easy breakfast.
FAQs For WW Pumpkin Muffins
If you are a lover of that pumpkin chocolate flavor, you can substitute sugar-free Devil's food cake mix for the yellow cake mix. This swap will give the muffins a rich, decadent flavor that complements the pumpkin.
Yes, you can definitely make WW muffins in a mini muffin pan. When using a mini muffin pan, it's recommended to adjust the cooking time to around 10-13 minutes to ensure they bake perfectly. This way, you can enjoy delicious mini versions of your favorite WW muffins in no time!

One part of the recipe says 350 degrees and another part says 325. Which do you recommend?

Sorry, I just corrected it. 325 degrees is correct.

Margie says
Just curious, but I actually got 18 muffins using a cupcake tin and filled the cups 1/2 full instead of 1/4 full. Were you perhaps using a larger tin? I will count these as 4 SP just to play it safe. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.
