Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a 12-hole, 1/3-cup (80ml) muffin pan with paper cases.

  2. Step 2

    Combine the flour, sugar, pumpkin, cinnamon and blueberries in a large bowl. Whisk the egg, oil and buttermilk in a jug. Add the egg mixture to the pumpkin mixture in the bowl and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined (don’t overmix).

  3. Step 3

    Divide mixture among the paper cases. Sprinkle with the muesli and extra blueberries. Bake for 25-30 mins or until a skewer inserted in the centres comes out clean. Serve warm or at room temperature.
