Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Shred your squash and drain off as much water as possible by placing it in a small mesh strainer and pressing it against the side. Alternatively, you can just squeeze the water out of the shredded squash one handful at a time.
Mix the flour, corn meal, baking powder, salt and pepper and mix well. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until well combined.
Spoon into a greased mini muffin tin. Bake 10-12 minutes until they are lightly brown and set.
Notes
Make sure to drain as much water as possible from your squash! If you don't, the batter will be very runny, and the muffins will take much longer to cook.
If using a standard muffin tin instead of a mini muffin pan the cooking time will increase to 12-15 minutes or until set.
