Meatloaf in Pumpkins
You can cook meatloaf in small pumpkins. Clean out the pumpkin, rub the inside with some garlic, salt and pepper, and fill with your favorite meatloaf recipe. Put the pumpkin top back on and cook at 350 for about an hour. You can slice the pumpkin into wedges at the table or before serving.
Pumpkin Muffins
1/2 c. butter, soft
1 1/4 c. sugar
1 1/4 c. pumpkin
2 eggs
1 1/2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 c. milk
optional 1/2 c. pecans
Preheat oven to 400. In a large bowl cream butter, sugar and pumpkin until smooth; add eggs; blend well. In a separate bowl sift together flour, baking powder, sald and spices; add alternately to the pumpkin batter with the milk. Mix until just blended. Fold in nuts if desired. Spoon into greased muffin tins. Makes 18 regular or 48 mini muffins. Bake regular size at 400 for 25 minutes. Bake miniature size for 15 minutes.
