Spur of the Moment Muffins

It’s 8:00pm Tuesday night. I’m done with my homework. The thought of studying anymore MCAT is nauseating. I’ve already caught up on all the episodes of Dance moms and Pinterest no longer holds my interest. Whats a girl to do when late night bordom sets in?

This girl bakes.

What’s a girl to do when her apartment has zero baking ingredients?

Make a trip to the grocery store in her pajamas.

I really hope my PJ pants put a smile on someone’s face! The picture is kind of blurry, but the hearts are shaped from candy canes. September officially starts the holiday season right?

I planned to make pumpkin muffins with a box of yellow cake mix and a can of pumpkin. Unfortuately, the grocery store was out of pumpkin! I had to improvise. I picked up a box of Devil’s food cake mix, unsweetened applesauce, and cinnamon. When I got home I poured the cake mix in the bowl, added about 15 oz of applesauce and 2 tsp. cinnamon.

The result:

Big gooey, chocolate, apple, cinnamon muffins. It is seriously hard to mess up a boxed cake mix. Add enough wet ingredients, and you’re bound to end up with an edible product. These muffins have an interesting flavor combo, but they are super good. The chocolate and cinnamon together is delish!

My breakfast this morning:

A bowl of vanilla yogurt with muffins crumbled on top. Yum! I’m feeling pretty great after this breakfast. It’s time for me to head to class now though! Have a great day!

XOXO,

Jamie

      Momma bear is just a little busy and isn’t a baking addict like I am. I will bake when I come home. I’m already looking forward to making Christmas cookies! I will make up a huge batch of royal icing and get the good gel food coloring, so we can make really pretty, fancy designs. I MISS YOU!

  1. I LOVE your pajamas! One of my favorite parts of college, walking around in my matching flannel zebra pajamas in the dining hall, and getting barely any looks. Your muffins look yummy :)

      • Well, pajamas are alright for breakfast, brunch (on weekends), or a late dinner… at my college (which you did guess correctly!), the funny thing is we dress for class, but there are so many random activities going on that if someone’s dressed in rally (odd clothing), we just assume it’s for an event :P

      • Yay Stanford! I don’t know if I told you this, but I took a few summer classes there when I was in high school. The campus is amazing and so were the students. I know a few people from the summer program who are going for undergrad.
