Pumpkin, honey and sultana muffins

This is a great way to use up left over pumpkin from last night's dinner. I find it funny that the same kids that won't eat the pumpkin from dinner will happily scoff down a muffin and will ask for more. 


1.5 cups of wholemeal self raising flour, sifted
0.25 cup honey
1 egg, lightly beaten
0.3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sultanas
1 cup cooked, mashed pumpkin


1. Preheat oven to 160C (fan forced) and grease a 12 hole muffin pan or use paper patty cases.
2. Place sifted flour in a large bowl. Whisk together oil, honey and egg in a separate bowl and add to flour.
3. Add pumpkin and sultanas and mix together until just combined.
4. Fill muffin cases or pan and bake for ~ 20mins or until an inserted skewer comes out clean.
5. Allow to cool before serving.



These are great for kids to take to school as they contain no nuts or dairy. They can be wrapped individually in plastic wrap to freeze and taken out in the morning to be put in the lunch box for that day. Also great with that morning or afternoon coffee or tea (I know from experience!)
