BUTTERNUT SQUASH MUFFINS WITH A FROSTY TOP



Butternut Squash Muffins with a Frosty Top image

My kids love these squash muffins. They taste a bit like carrot cake, as the two vegetables are very similar - I've simply swapped carrots for squash. Both of them are wonderful carriers of flavors like cinnamon, cloves and vanilla. The skin of a butternut squash goes deliciously chewy and soft when cooked, so there's no need to peel it off. Give these little cakes a go - they're a perfect naughty-but-nice treat. And a great way of getting your kids to eat squash!

Provided by Jamie Oliver

Time 1h50m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 16

14 ounces butternut squash, skin on, deseeded and roughly chopped
2 1/4 cups light soft brown sugar
4 large free-range or organic eggs
Sea salt
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, unsifted
2 heaping teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Handful of walnuts, chopped
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 clementine, zested
1 lemon, zested
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/2 cup sour cream
2 heaping tablespoons icing sugar, sifted
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped out
Lavender flowers or rose petals, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line your muffin tins with paper cups.
  • Whiz the squash in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the sugar, and crack in the eggs. Add a pinch of salt, the flour, baking powder, walnuts, cinnamon and olive oil and whiz together until well beaten. You may need to pause the machine at some point to scrape the mix down the sides with a rubber spatula. Try not to overdo it with the mixing - you want to just combine everything and no more.
  • Fill the paper cups with the muffin mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Check to see whether they are cooked properly by sticking a wooden skewer or a knife right into one of the muffins - if it comes out clean, they're done. If it's a bit sticky, pop them back into the oven for a little longer. Remove from the oven and leave the muffins to cool on a wire rack.
  • As soon as the muffins are in the oven, make your runny frosted topping. Place most of the clementine zest, all the lemon zest and the lemon juice in a bowl. Add the sour cream, icing sugar and vanilla seeds and mix well. Taste and have a think about it - adjust the amount of lemon juice or icing sugar to balance the sweet and sour. Put into the fridge until your muffins have cooled down, then spoon the topping onto the muffins.
  • Serve on a lovely plate (on a cake stand if you're feeling elegant, or on a rustic slab if you're more of a hunter-gatherer type!), with the rest of the clementine zest sprinkled over. For an interesting flavor and look, a few dried lavender flowers or rose petals are fantastic.

Time 1h40m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup cooked, mashed butternut squash
3/4 cup whole milk, at room temperature
1/2 cup chopped pecans, optional
Cranberry Compote Filling, recipe follows
Sage-Cream Cheese Frosting, recipe follows
1 cup granulated sugar
12 ounces fresh cranberries, rinsed and drained
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
Pinch salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 to 3 cups powdered sugar
2 teaspoons juice from Cranberry Compote
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 muffin pans with cupcake liners.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until well blended using a hand held mixer. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, and then add the vanilla and one egg at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Add the butternut squash and mix until well blended.
  • With the mixer on the lowest speed, add the dry ingredients and the milk, alternating between the two, beginning and ending with the flour, blending thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the chopped pecans if using.
  • Fill the cupcake liners two-thirds full with batter and bake until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool in the pans on a cooling rack for 10 minutes, and then remove the cupcakes from the pans and cool completely on the rack before filling and frosting.
  • To assemble: Core the center of each cooled cupcake using an apple corer. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the cooled Cranberry Compote Filling into the cavity of each cupcake. Generously frost the top of each cupcake with the Sage-Cream Cheese Frosting.
  • Combine the granulated sugar and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil; add the cranberries and return to a boil. Reduce the heat and boil gently for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Cover and cool completely at room temperature.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the cream cheese and butter together on medium-high speed until smooth. Add the salt and vanilla extract. Beat until incorporated. Add the powdered sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the juice from the Cranberry Compote, and then add the chopped sage and mix on low speed until fully incorporated.
