This nutritious Butternut Squash Cinnamon Granola uses butternut squash to provide sweetness whilst boosting the nutrient content and can be used as a topping with yoghurt, but as it’s so delicious, do watch the portion sizes! Makes an ideal portable snack.
If you prefer not to bake the pumpkin, you can puree it after cooking/steaming in a saucepan. Simply peel and chop it into cubes, blend it in a food processor to small pieces. Then transfer to a saucepan or steaming tray over a saucepan and cook for 20mins over a low heat to soften. When it is cooked, it can be blended to a smooth puree, either in a food processor or using a hand blender.
