Yes! Spice cake mix works really well with pumpkin, but keep in mind that not all flavors are sugar-freeโso the points may change.

Definitely! Chopped pecans, walnuts, or sugar-free chocolate chips make these even more delicious, but youโll need to count the extra points.
Q3: How do I store these muffins?
Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. They also freeze beautifully for up to 2 months.
Q4: Can I make these muffins gluten-free?
Yesโjust use a gluten-free cake mix and follow the same steps.
