I know it's been a while my dear foodies. It was pretty hectic, and busy last week. I managed to survive anyways, lol... :) Well, now since I am back with my cooking and discovering new adventures, I just created a new muffin that I call " Holiday Muffin". I am sure we all keep some frozen veggies in our freezers. I personally prefer the frozen vegetables or fruits to the canned ones. Those canned veggies or fruits have so much preservatives in them.
Anyways, I had a box of frozen squash sitting in my freezer for a while, and I was keep asking my self that what could I do with that? I just didn't want to come up with a traditional squash puree with chicken or turkey. So I decided to cook the squash with some honey, butter, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, allspice, nutmeg and a little bit of cayenne pepper... I know... :) but just a little shake... Anyways, I cooked that for about 45 minutes to an hour, stirring occasionally, and then I add some whole wheat flour to it, and about 2 cups of oatmeal, flax seeds, some nuts ( whatever is available, I used some pecans...) and about a tsp of arrowroot ( I mentioned the arrowroot in previous posts) a tsp of baking powder and some stevia leaves. I spooned the mixture to a muffin sheet and baked about 45 minutes... Voila... The result was quite amazing...
