These pumpkin spice cupcakes are SO GOOD, it’s hard to believe they are only 2 points each!
You might be wondering how that is even possible? I’ll tell you what I used.
For the cake mix I used Pillsbury sugar-free yellow cake mix. It’s 38 points for the entire box and this recipe makes 24 cupcakes.
I like that Weight Watchers updated the app for the cake mix. It now calculates the points for the whole box, whereas before it said 1/10 of the box.
Some people didn’t realize that and thought there was way fewer points in the cake mix.
So besides the cake mix I also used canned pumpkin, water, pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon.
I put all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, then used a handheld mixer on medium speed for two minutes.
There is enough cake mix for 24 cupcakes.
I thought the best topping for these pumpkin spice cupcakes would be whipped cream, of course. Using fat-free Reddi Wip doesn’t add points, as long as it’s not more than 4 tablespoons.
One bonus about these cupcakes is they smell so good when they’re baking! It smells just like you’re baking a pumpkin pie.
If you are not eating the cupcakes right away I would wait to add the whipped cream.
Yield: 24 cupcakes (2 points each on myWW blue, green and purple)
- 1 box Pillsbury sugar-free yellow cake mix
- 1 15 oz. can pure pumpkin
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Fat-free Reddi Wip
-
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
-
Add the cake mix, pumpkin, water, pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon to a mixing bowl. Combine using a handheld mixer on medium for two minutes.
-
Line a cupcake pan with cupcake wrappers. Fill each one half full with the cake batter. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
-
Let cupcakes cool, then add fat-free Reddi Wip.
