Craving a sweet fall treat? Pumpkin Spice Mug Cake is the perfect single-serve dessert!

Easy peasy treat!

This recipe uses oh so simple, inexpensive ingredients, and it cooks up fast in the microwave. It’s perfect for those moments when you’re craving all the fall flavors of pumpkin-infused baked goods, but don’t want to deal with a full-blown baking adventure and all of the associated clean-up. I like to sometimes make one of these after the kiddos have gone to bed as a late-night snack just for me. 😋

All you need is some spiced cake mix, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and milk. We added a dash of pumpkin pie spice to ours as well — it’s optional, but just adds an extra boost of warmth and coziness to the cake! 🎃 Feel free to throw in some chocolate chips to kick the flavor up a notch.

    Hey Lina, If a person wanted to make this into a whole cake in the oven what do you think the ratios would be? One box cake mix and…..do you think if I just followed the quantities on the box say maybe less oil and add a can of pumpkin plus spices?

  10. Janet Hampton

    I loved it! Made it for breakfast.
