Background

During the autumn I love making these easy squash muffins with walnuts. They smell divine and taste really yummy! If you carve a pumpkin for Halloween, this recipe is ideal for using up some of the pumpkin flash (but instead of grating, just put the flesh in a blender and whiz for a few seconds). The muffins go really well with hot chocolate or mulled wine!

Ingredients

2 cups whole-wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ cup unrefined sugar
25g vanilla sugar (Bourbon)
1 tsp gingerbread spice mixture or mixed spice
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 cups coarsely grated squash or pumpkin
½ cup chopped walnut
½ cup raisins (optional)
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup vegetable oil
½ milk or yogurt (can be dairy-free)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Mix the flour with the spices, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla sugar and sugar.
Peel the squash, grate the flesh and measure out 2 cups.
In a small bowl mix the eggs with the oil and milk.
Pour the egg mixture into the flour, combine, then fold in the gently the raisins, walnuts and grated pumpkin. Mix thoroughly.
Pour the mixture into silicone muffin moulds or a muffin tin lined with paper cups.
Bake in the hot oven for 20- 25 minutes until golden
Transfer the muffins to a wire rack and let them cool.
