Instant Pot Pumpkin Muffin Bites
If there are two ingredients I always keep in my pantry it is boxed cake mixes and pumpkin puree. Staple supplies that I always have on hand.

Pumpkin puree and box cake mix work together to create an incredible recipe that even those who don’t bake can make. Grab that Instant Pot or Ninja Foodi and get to work on making muffin bites!
What Flavor Of Cake Mix Do You Need For Muffin Bites
You can actually use any flavor of cake mix. I reached for yellow, but I think a spice cake mix, white, or even a chocolate cake mix would be fantastic! The spice cake mix I think would be a perfect flavor for fall!
If you want added pumpkin flavor add a teaspoon of pumpkin spice seasoning to give it more of a pumpkin flavor.
What Size Of Egg Bite Molds Do You Use For Instant Pot 2 Ingredient Muffins
This is important, you need to buy the large egg bite molds, or it will not work. The ones I use measure about 8″ across and are 2″ high. The small ones will not work, I gave it a try and that was a flop.
You can buy the larger egg bite molds online, or you might have luck in finding it at a local store.
My 2 Ingredient Muffin Batter Is Thick
Yes, this 2 ingredient muffin batter will be very thick. You don’t add eggs, water, oil, etc. It is literally cake mix and pumpkin puree. So don’t stress when you see the batter is extra thick. Just trust the process and go with it!
How Long Do You Cook Muffin Bites In Instant Pot
I cooked these in the pressure cooker for 30 minutes and did a 10-minute natural release. Look at how incredibly moist and tender these muffin bites turned out! It was like magic I tell you!
Can I Make These Pumpkin Muffin Bites Into Cupcakes
For sure. Just add in a pumpkin spice frosting, vanilla, or whatever flavor you like. Then pipe or spread the frosting on and enjoy! A great way to eat as a dessert, or leave plain and call them muffins!

Do you cover with foil to keep moisture out?
you do not have too, I never do since I always forget to anyway 🙂 but you can if you prefer.
It’s really good with spice cake mix and my personal favorite is butter pecan cake mix.
I only got 14, not 28! Yikes. Twice the calories! They are delicious though!
Glad you love them.
I only have 1 egg bite mold. Could I do this in a springform pan?
Definitely. I am just not positive on the timing. But usually cakes take as much time in the instant pot as they would in the oven
