Time 1h20m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cushaw squash - peeled, seeded, and chopped
½ cup maple syrup
⅓ cup melted coconut oil
2 large eggs eggs
⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 ¾ cups whole wheat flour
½ cup chopped pecans
¼ cup old-fashioned oats
2 teaspoons Himalayan sea salt
½ teaspoon finely chopped rosemary

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease 18 muffin cups.
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill the bottom of the basket with 3 inches of water. Bring water to a boil. Add squash, cover, and steam until skin is easily pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Let cool enough to handle, 15 to 30 minutes. Remove outer skin.
  • Place squash flesh into the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth. Reserve 1 cup for muffins.
  • Whisk maple syrup and coconut oil together in a large bowl until well combined. Add eggs and whisk well. Add 1 cup squash puree, Greek yogurt, baking soda, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, ginger, and nutmeg. Stir to combine. Stir in whole wheat flour, pecans, and oats until just combined.
  • Combine sea salt and rosemary in a small ramekin. Rub mixture with your fingers to release the oils from rosemary into the salt.
  • Divide muffin batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups. Top with with a dash of the rosemary sea salt.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, 18 to 20 minutes.
