Pumpkin/squash are great. I have a great Zucchini bread/muffin recipe that is delicious! You can add bananas, squash, carrots, anything you want you’re kid to eat in disguise. My kids love it when I put it all in and make an everything muffin:)

You’ll need:
3 eggs
1 cup oil or applesauce
1 T. Vanilla (I always use more)
2 cups zucchini grated (or any fruit/veggie)
1 t. salt ( I think it’s optional for kids)
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 T. cinnamon
3 cups flour
1 t. baking soda
1/4 t. baking powder
Yields 2 loaves ( I always cut it in half and make less)

Beat eggs. Add oil, vanilla, and Zucchini. Sift together salt, sugar, cinnamon, flour, baking soda and powder. Add to liquid ingredients. Pour into loaf or muffin pans and bake at 350 for 1 hour (I always bake it for less if they are muffins) Hope you like it:)

Got this one from another group I used to belong to. Melissa if you are out there – thanks. Came out great. I used applesauce in place of the oil and cut some of the sugar. I used my big yellow squash and 1/2 the flour was whole wheat.
Enjoy,
Heidi

  1. Thanks, Jenni! This is exactly what I’m craving right now with our fall-ish weather! I’m going to put Bep to work on ‘em tonight!
