Golden Fruit and Vegetable Muffins image

Another delicious way to use the plentiful yellow crookneck squash from your summer garden! These moist muffins are reminiscent of a light fruitcake. They will keep several days in an airtight container. The recipe is from "Sweet and Savory Muffins" and was in a November 1985 issue of Bon Appetit magazine.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead. They added a nice crunch to the muffins.

I didn't have any fruits or vegetables on hand, so I made the muffins with chocolate chips instead. They were still delicious!

The muffins were a little dry. I think I should have added some more oil or butter to the batter.

I had some trouble getting the muffins to rise evenly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

The muffins were a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used a sweeter variety of apple.

I made a few substitutions to this recipe and they still turned out great. I used almond milk instead of regular milk and added some chopped nuts.
