This is one of my favorite fall recipes, and a sneaky way to get your kids to eat vegetables.
Squash Muffins
Ingredients:
2 lbs. yellow squash (about 8 medium)
2 eggs
1 c butter, melted
1 c sugar
3 c all-purpose flour
1 T plus 2 t baking powder
1 t salt
Method:
Wash squash thoroughly; trim off ends. Cut squash into one inch slices. Cook in a small amount of boiling water 15 - 20 minutes or until tender. Drain well, and mash.
Measure enough of the squash to equal 2 cups. Combine squash, eggs, and butter. Stir well and set aside.
Combine remaining ingredients in a large bowl; make a well in center of mixture to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened.
Spoon into greased muffin tins 3/4 full. Bake @ 375 degrees for 20 minutes.
*The recipe is supposed to make 1 1/2 dozen muffins, but I usually make slightly more, maybe 22 muffins.
Until next time...
Blessings!

Interesting-never heard of them. They look yummy though.
ReplyDeleteHi pretty RJ! Oh, I don't have any kids at home anymore but I do have me and Mr. Precious and these look so good! I love squash but other than zucchini, I've not had yellow squash in a goodie. I just may have to try this!

ReplyDeleteThose sound delicious! I love squash, and this is similar to what I'd do with pears or apples for the fall....only it sounds earthier and heartier. Thanks for the inspiration! :)
