Sweet Squash (Mini) Muffins image

These are so light, moist, and yummy! I don't even care for yellow squash! So just try them! They are excellent for Thanksgiving dinner, with an autumn mulligatawny soup, or just as a snack with jam and tea! I prefer them as mini muffins, however the originally recipe cooked the batter as 18 full muffins. Even as a full muffin per serving, these are low in fat & sugar for a muffin too! This list of ingredients comes from Julia Richardson of Monroe, Michigan. I clipped it from a reader's share section of a magazine.

Time 1h25m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 cups sliced yellow squash (about 2 pounds)
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup skim milk
1/3 cup margarine, melted
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
vegetable oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Bring to a boil the water and the squash. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Drain well.
  • Mash the squash. Using a strainer, drain well. Discard liquid.
  • Preheat oven to 375-degree F.
  • Mix the squash, milk, margarine, and eggs well. Set aside.
  • Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; and create a well in the center.
  • Place squash mixture in the well, stirring until the dry ingredients are just moistened.
  • Split batter evenly among muffin pans sprayed with vegetable cooking spray.
  • Bake 15-20 minutes in a 375-degree F oven. Remove from pan; let cool on wire rack.
  • These only last about 3-5 days max. before spoiling (less if left out, more if stored in refrigerator). Good for freezing though! Defrost in refrigerator or microwave.

These muffins are delicious! The squash gives them a moist and flavorful texture, and the spices add a warm and inviting aroma. I'll definitely be making these again.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover squash. They're also a good source of fiber and vitamin A. I like to add a little bit of chopped nuts or dried fruit for extra flavor and texture.

I love that these muffins are made with whole wheat flour and honey. It makes them a healthier option than traditional muffins. They're also very moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making these again.

These muffins are a great way to get kids to eat their vegetables. The squash is hidden inside the muffins, so they don't even realize they're eating it. The muffins are also very tasty, so kids will love them.

I was disappointed with these muffins. The texture was dry and crumbly, and the flavor was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed these muffins. I'm not usually a fan of squash, but the flavor was subtle and not overpowering. The muffins were also very easy to make, which is always a plus.

These muffins were a hit with my family! The sweetness of the squash was perfectly balanced by the spices, and the texture was fluffy and moist. I'll definitely be making these again.
