Butternut Squash Muffins

Enjoy these butternut squash muffins made with whole wheat flour! If you are not a fan of whole wheat flour, you can just substitute it for white flour. If you don’t use sugar, you can substitute with sucanat or stevia. If you substitute it with honey, I would reduce the amount of oil used.
Ingredients
- 2 medium size butternut squash, peeled and deseeded
- 2 ½ cups flour (I used fresh ground whole wheat flour)
- 2 ¼ cup sugar
- 4 eggs
- cup olive oil
- 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- Pinch of sea salt
- Dash of cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Peel and deseed butternut squash.
- Chop and boil under tender.

- Puree butternut squash.
- Mix the following: butternut squash puree, sugar, eggs, olive oil, sea salt, cinnamon.
- Mix together baking powder and flour.
- Stir baking powder and flour into butternut squash mixture.
- Grease muffin pan.
- Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
