Pumpkin and Goats Cheese Muffins Recipe
These muffins make the perfect lunchbox snack. They’re nut-free and packed with vegetables and nutrient-dense flours. For this recipe, I use leftover cold roasted pumpkin. I’ll often roast a whole lot of pumpkin and sweet potato on the weekend to use in dishes like this. Roasted pumpkin also freezes very well and can then be used later.
