Spiced Muffin Mix In A Jar

Making your own spiced muffin mix is as easy as can be. Make several at once then store some in your pantry for a quick breakfast option later. Or make them as fun homemade edible gifts.

Muffins are such a versatile food. They are great for a grab and go breakfast on a busy morning.

They are also wonderful served with a nice brunch. You can even enjoy them as a snack.

These spiced muffins aren’t too sweet. They have just enough sugar to make them a treat without being a dessert.

The mix of spices reminds me a bit of the holidays. The cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves give gingerbread vibes without being too much.

I think a jar of the muffin mix and a jar of spiced Christmas coffee mix is the perfect combination for a hostess gift or teacher gift. All they have to do is add 4 simple ingredients to make the muffin batter and a little hot water for the coffee.

Breakfast will be ready before they know it and they will have you to thank for it.

The best part is that the mix only takes a couple of minutes to put together. So you can make several jars at once.

Once you have the ingredients out, you can make an assembly line and it really goes fast. Keep a few in your pantry for later and give the rest away.

Give them together along with some cute kitchen linens, a fun spatula, and/or cupcake liners to make an extra nice gift.
