Acorn Squash Apple Muffins
These moist muffins are made from in-season acorn squash and apples. The tartness from the apple chunks complements the sweetness from the squash and spices. These are probably the first gluten-free, vegan, and no-sugar-added muffins you’ll want to master and luckily they are also one of the easiest. Bake some today and enjoy them with a hot cup of coffee or tea.
