Pumpkin can be either baked or steamed but baking does produce the most flavor and the best puree for all of the recipes, sweet or savory!
Pumpkin by itself doesn't have much taste. But It’s incredibly healthy. Pumpkin contains a variety of nutrients especially that can improve heart health, including vitamin c, fiber and potassium.
Apples are a great thing to add to the kids menu! An apple a day, really might keep the doctor away (although, I’m not sure that anyone has ever tried it!)
I don’t really like muffin that much, but I am in love with these muffins. If a child was asked ‘ do you take these muffin to be your breakfast ? ’ the answer would be ‘ yeah! ’ I supposed. Even though they don’t look really fancy but taste awesome.
The other great part about them is the easy recipe. Everything is just mixed together, no creaming or folding, just beat it all in a bowl and it’s done.
These delicious muffins along with a cup of coffee, milo or fresh milk is the perfect way to enjoy a wonderful morning, even the perfect treat for anytime of the day.
You can make these muffins for the party or event. They are just the perfect and healthy sweet treat that your kids will not only enjoy eating but making too!
Trust me, Kids love to bake and play in the kitchen.
