BUTTERNUT SQUASH OAT MUFFINS WITH CANDIED GINGER

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees and grease a muffin tin.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, oats, sugar, baking powder, salt, spices and lemon zest. In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, melted butter and maple syrup. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently stir with a rubber spatula until almost combined - the batter will be very thick. Then fold in the shredded squash and candied ginger.
• Spoon the batter into the muffin tin. Bake for 20 minutes or so, or until the muffins are lightly golden and spring back when touched. Cool for 5 minutes in the pan before turning them out on a wire rack.

WINTER SQUASH MUFFINS WITH RAISINS AND SPICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. For the muffin tins, you can either use non-stick or line them with parchment paper cups. Don't use regular paper cups, the muffins will stick to them. Perhaps greasing and flouring would work too.
• In a small bowl, sift all the dry ingredients together.
• In a large bowl, whisk the egg and honey together, then add the oil gradually, then the lemon juice, and finally add the soymilk and mix until smooth.
• Add the dry ingredients, mix roughly with a rubber spatula, add the squash and raisins and mix until there are no more pockets of flour.
• Distribute evenly in the 12 muffin tins, and bake for 20 minutes.
• Cool on a wire rack. As with any baked goods with spices, they will become more flavourful as they age. Tasting them right out of the oven might be a little disappointing!
