The first time I made these muffins Oscar helped me make them in the morning. That night we were having a roast for dinner and while I was preparing the vegetables Oscar came into the kitchen. This is the conversation that followed.
Oscar: what’s that mum?
Mum: Carrot
Oscar: I don’t like carrot………..what’s that?
Mum: Swede
Oscar: I don’t like swede………..what’s that?
Mum: Pumpkin
Oscar: I don’t like pumpkin.
Mum (getting a bit exasperated): What vegetables do you like Oscar?
Oscar: Those (pointing to the pumpkin muffins)!At least he’s eating some form of vegetable!The recipe is based on a gluten free recipe from Friendly Food and is listed as a breakfast recipe. The muffins are quite sweet, a little bit too sweet for me, so I would probably use less sugar next time.

Woweeeee.tried them and they are awesome! Really yum.iadded half a banana, because I had one and that was delish too! Didn’t have pear juice so used soy milk for a dairy and egg free treat. Will definitely be making again.thanks for the recipe!
Glad you liked them Kate. I’ll have to try them with banana now.
These look great…but do they need egg?
Hi Kate, they don’t need egg.
