Fall is in the air my Steemian Friends! I hope you are enjoying your Saturday by spending some time with nature! I’m sure the trees are beginning to turn into a beautiful palate of exquisite color just about now! Sigh…I do miss that.
As I drove around town today there were children playing everywhere. The Orchards are busy this time of year, everyone enjoying Apples, Cider, Pumpkins and an occasional hay ride. Squash and pumpkins are two favorites which are always enjoyed in the Bird household.
We made Maple Butternut Squash Butter the other day and today, I have another recipe utilizing that wonderful butter!
But first….we have unfinished business business to take care of
I shared a post last week about making your own Cashew Milk. . If you’ll remember after I made the Cashew milk we had Cashew pulp left over.
I hope you saved your pulp!
I have a great recipe to share with you today, and we’ll need that Cashew pulp!
Butternut Squash English Muffins
The first thing we will need to do is dry the pulp! Spread your pulp evenly over a parchment lined baking sheet. Try to crumble the pieces into small pieces, they’ll dry faster. Bake at 200 degrees for about 2 hours. Test the pulp to make sure it is dry and crumbly. Place the dry pulp in your favorite blender and process until it is smooth like flour. You’ll find it is very fine and light. And remember, Cashew flour is grain free! Great for those who have gluten intolerance. We’ll use this for today’s recipe!
I used
- 1/2 cup Cashew flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
- 6 tablespoons Butternut Squash Butter
- 2 flax eggs
- 2 tablespoons Cashew Milk
Note: 1 flax egg = 1 tablespoon flax seed + 3 tablespoons filtered water. Let sit 10 min before using
Mix the Cashew flour and Baking powder together in a bowl, then add the butter, eggs and Milk. Stir well and pour evenly into your muffin tin. Bake at 350 for about 12 minutes. You’ll end up with these cute little English Muffin type muffins! They have a fabulous maple, cinnamon flavor.
Now let’s add the BUTTER
Just spoon a little, or a lot of that Maple-icious, yummy butter on one of those warm muffins!
Sit back, and enjoy! On, don’t forget your fresh glass of Cashew Milk!
I do hope you’ll try these muffins. They take very little time to make so it’s a quick healthy breakfast or snack option. Great for those families on the go! Have a great weekend my friends!
And as always, blessings to you all!
