I sort of have an informal scale of vegetable goodness. It pretty much goes like this:
1. Anything green.
2. Everything else.
As recently stated, Sofie is not such a fan of much of category #1 (she makes an exception for peas) and, although I try to get something green to land in her belly every day, some days we just need a sneaky veggie alternative. That's where the pumpkin mini muffins come in. Sofie thinks that they are a tasty treat and is happy to gobble them up.
Here's the recipe:
1 box of spice cake mix
1 15 ounce can of pumpkin pie filling
1/2 cup of water
I like to bake them in little bite size mini muffin wrappers. The recipe yields around 72 and I like to freeze them in sets of four for convenience. The mini variety bakes for about 10 minutes, but you can make them in any cakey variety you like following the baking instructions on the back of the box. Easy peasy little trick :)
Yummmm! I have made this recipe for a cake before, but I LOVE the mini muffin idea (especially frezzing them in fours). You can also do the same type of thing with chocolate cake instead of spice cake. Also DELICIOUS!!
ReplyDeleteYum! Thanks for the recipe... I'll have to try this one!!
