Toddler Muffin Recipe

Yesterday, I put up this status on Facebook:  "Josh is eating a homemade muffin with veggies and wheat germ! I've been trying this hide-good-food-in-kid-friendly-snacks trick for years and it never works because he won't do mixed textures or homemade food, but today: SUCCESS!!"

Here is the recipe for the muffins:

Ingredients:
2 bananas, mashed
2 grated carrots
1/2 cup pureed squash (would strongly recommend pre-packaged baby food for this one)
1/2 cup butter (softened)
1 cup brown sugar (could do less if concerned about sugar)
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup flour
1/2 cup wheat germ
1 tspn. baking soda
1/2 tspn. salt
1/2 tspn. each of cinnaomon, nutmeg, and ginger

Directions:
1.  Preheat oven to 375 and grease muffin pan.
2.  Mix butter and brown sugar.  Then mix in banana, squash, carrot, and eggs. Then stir in dry ingredients.  
3.  Put batter in muffin pan.  Should make 12 regular sized muffins.
3.  Bake 15-20 minutes.

Enjoy!
