Acorn Squash Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a 12 cup muffin pan.
• In a medium saucepan with enough water to cover, boil squash 20 minutes, or until tender. Remove from heat, drain, and puree in a food processor.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, white sugar, salt and pumpkin pie spice.
• In a medium bowl, thoroughly mix together milk, egg and butter. Stir in squash. Fold the squash mixture into the flour mixture just until moistened.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling cups about 1/2 full. Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Remove from muffin pan and cool on a wire rack.

Crack egg into the indent. Mix batter slightly and gradually pour in milk, mixing until just combined. Fold in Cheddar cheese.
• Spoon batter into the muffin cups until 3/4 full.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
