"Cushaw squash is prevalent in the South but is just as versatile as pumpkin. These muffins make a great breakfast on the go or a quick snack and can be customized with your favorite nuts, dried fruits, or even chocolate chips."

Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease 18 muffin cups.
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill the bottom of the basket with 3 inches of water. Bring water to a boil. Add squash, cover, and steam until skin is easily pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Let cool enough to handle, 15 to 30 minutes. Remove outer skin.
- Place squash flesh into the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth. Reserve 1 cup for muffins.
- Whisk maple syrup and coconut oil together in a large bowl until well combined. Add eggs and whisk well. Add 1 cup squash puree, Greek yogurt, baking soda, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, ginger, and nutmeg. Stir to combine. Stir in whole wheat flour, pecans, and oats until just combined.
- Combine sea salt and rosemary in a small ramekin. Rub mixture with your fingers to release the oils from rosemary into the salt.
- Divide muffin batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups. Top with with a dash of the rosemary sea salt.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, 18 to 20 minutes.
