Pumpkin Muffins

FJ has started Daycare 2 days a week, Chris is back at work and I'm getting ready to head back to school so lunch box ideas are forefront in my mind.

Here is a terrific recipe for something a little out of the ordinary, super yummy and very filling!

Ingredients
1.5 cups GF flour
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
Dash of nutmeg, all spice & cardamon
1 cup mashed pumpkin
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup apple puree
3 tbs honey
2 eggs

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees and fill 12 muffin trays with muffin cases.
2. Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, all spice and cardamon. Mix and set aside.
3. Blend the squash, sugar, apple sauce, honey and egg in another bowl.
4. Slowly fold the dry ingredients in to the wet ingredients. Mix well.
5. Fill each muffin case to approximately 2/3 full.
6. Bake for 40 minutes.

These can be enjoyed warm (I couldn't resist as soon as they came out of the oven!) or frozen for school lunches!!
