Yellow Squash Muffins

By

I had to make these gluten free for my son. They turned out great! For the flour mixture I used 2 cups of brown rice flour, and 1 cup of tapioca starch. I also added a 1/4 tsp of all spice. Great breakfast muffin!

I found this recipe in a newspaper article many years ago. It's really delicious.The original recipe called for 1 cup melted butter. I use 1/2 cup butter & 1/2 cup applesauce.
