Butternut Squash and Pecan Muffins
I don't know if you remember, but a couple of months ago I joined a local co-op and received fresh organic veggies every week ( by the way, I have currently stopped going until the spring since it was no longer worth the money). In one of those orders several weeks ago I got a beautiful butternut squash which I never got around to using. The other day, I finally got around to roasting it, hoping it would be done in time for dinner. It wasn't and a big bowl of roasted mashed squash has been in my fridge for a couple days. Not wanting to let it rot in my fridge like so many other things I decided this morning it would be perfect for some muffins. These muffins are simple and savory with just a hint of sweetness. Just the way I like my muffins. If you like yours sweeter feel free to add more sugar. You should get 10-12 muffins out of a batch. I doubled this recipe since I had so much squash to use. Butternut Squash and Pecan Muffins 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 egg 3/4 cup milk 1 tablespoon melted butter 1/2 cup cooked and pureed butternut squash 1/2 cup chopped pecans Preheat oven to 400. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Beat the egg, milk and butter in a bowl until well blended. Mix in the squash to egg mixture then gradually stir in flour mix until just combined Stir in pecans Immediately remove from tins related searches : Butternut
