These muffins are so delicious. I made this recipe because I couldn't find squash muffins that were very tasty. You won't be able to keep these on the table.

Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ pound peeled, seeded and cubed butternut squash
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
¾ cup milk
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 12 cup muffin pan.
  • In a medium saucepan with enough water to cover, boil squash 20 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, drain, and puree in a food processor.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, white sugar, salt and pumpkin pie spice.
  • In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix together milk, egg and butter. Stir in squash. Fold the squash mixture into the flour mixture just until moistened.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling cups about 1/2 full. Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from muffin pan and cool on a wire rack.

The muffins were a bit dry. I think I should have added more butternut squash.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.
