Two-Ingredient Pumpkin Cake: A Lazy Baker's Dream Come True!
Recipe details
Ingredients
- 1 box of spice cake mix (any brand you like)
- 1 can (15 ounces) of pure pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- Optional: a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C)
- Mix 'Em Up: In a large mixing bowl, combine the spice cake mix and the can of pumpkin puree. That's right—just those two ingredients! No eggs, no oil, no fuss.
- Mix it all together until everything is well incorporated. You'll be amazed at how the pumpkin puree magically transforms the cake mix into a glorious pumpkin batter.
- Bake It: Pour your batter into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly because we want our cake to be as lazy as we are. Pop that dish into the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Once your Two-Ingredient Pumpkin Cake is done baking, let it cool for a bit. While cooling you can make a cup of coffee to enjoy with your cake.
- When it's cool enough, slice it up and serve it with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream if you're feeling fancy.
Tips
- This cake is pretty darn good on its own, but you can get creative! Try adding chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of caramel sauce for some extra pizzazz.
