Cornbread has been a family favorite for a long time but this is a new twist on our staple side dish. Â Last fall I had cooked up a butternut squash for another recipe. Â Our family isn’t a huge fan of the squash so I had a lot leftover. Â I had seen a recipe for pumpkin cornbread so I thought I’d try it with my leftovers. Â This butternut squash cornbread recipe is the result and you won’t believe how easy it is!!!

Easy Butternut Squash Cornbread Recipe
- 1 box Jiffy corn muffin mix
- 1 egg
- 1/2 c milk
- 1/2 c butternut squash puree
Mashing up the squash is the fun part!
Then you basically just dump everything in a mixing bowl and mix it up!
Grease the muffin tins well, fill each about 3/4 full, and bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes. Â These are perfect to serve with soup on a cold night! Â BTW, my family didn’t even realize there was squash in these. Â But I do think it made the muffins moister and more flavorful.

I just made these with fresh sugar pumpkin puree and they’re SO good! I lined the muffin pan and just sugared the tops because my Husband requested them that way (similar to something his mother made). We both loved them! Thanks for the recipe and I love the new site design. 🙂

Made this a few weeks ago and my husband, 18 month old son, and I all LOVED it! Crockpot recipes are my go-to on evenings that I won’t have time to make dinner and this is one of our favorites already. We are having it for the 3rd time tonight!!! Thanks to Pinterest for helping me find you!

The 4th of July isn’t a special day in the Netherlands, but we have Queensday to celecrate the birthday of our queen. This year our queen abdicated and now her son is king. So next year no Queensday but Kingsday 🙂 I’ll save your recipe/tutorial so I can make this next year for Kingsday and/or the 5th of May (celebrating the end of WO II) The colours of the Dutch flag are red, white end blue so it would be perfect.
