I experimented and made these muffins with the yellow squash that I had an abundance of. I also added a cup of chopped apple and subbed coconut oil for the canola oil. They are so very tasty! They really seem like apple spice muffins that happen to also have squash in them. Another reviewer said you really needed butternut squash, but I disagree. My two year old is gobbling them up now.<\/p>","CommentId":9,"DateRated":"06\/26\/2013 10:46","GUID":"9f9aeb2c45eb45638c7f055e76868b3d","MemberId":7315921,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"unvymom","SubmittedDate":"06\/26\/2013 10:46"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"03\/29\/2013 19:35","GUID":"bc4c223536f248acae257cee8f2c26f0","MemberId":1702867,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"MartineRC","SubmittedDate":"03\/29\/2013 19:35"},{"Comment":"
