Directions
In a medium to large bowl, combine half of the mix minus 1 tbsp and dried spices using a whisk until well combined.
In a large bowl for your hand or electric mixer, combine and beat your butter and sugar until blended.
Add one egg or egg substitute at a time (if making multiple batches in one) before beating at medium speed.
Preheat your oven to and grease your pan/tin needed with butter/baking spray.
Continue beating at medium speed until fluffy and light (roughly 3 minutes).
Beat in the pumpkin puree just until combined.
Set your mixer to low speed and add in the mix and spices until combined.
Pour the batter into your pan of choice and bake for 60-70 minutes for bread or 10-15 minutes for cupcakes, donuts, or cake.
