Time 40m

Yield About 1 dozen muffins

Number Of Ingredients 15

130 grams all-purpose flour (about 1 cup)
100 grams whole-wheat flour (about 2/3 cup)
50 grams oats (about 1/2 cup)
55 grams light brown sugar (about 1/3 cup)
13 grams baking powder (about 1 tablespoon)
3 grams fine sea salt (about 1 teaspoon)
3 grams ground cinnamon (about 1 teaspoon)
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Zest of 1 lemon, finely grated
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup Greek yogurt, room temperature
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/4 cup maple syrup
130 grams finely shredded butternut squash (about 1 1/2 cups)
35 grams finely chopped candied ginger (about 1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees and grease a muffin tin.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, oats, sugar, baking powder, salt, spices and lemon zest. In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, melted butter and maple syrup. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently stir with a rubber spatula until almost combined - the batter will be very thick. Then fold in the shredded squash and candied ginger.
  • Spoon the batter into the muffin tin. Bake for 20 minutes or so, or until the muffins are lightly golden and spring back when touched. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan before turning them out on a wire rack.
