  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and apple pie spice. Stir.
  • In a small bowl, combine eggs, oil, sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth. Wash hands after touching uncooked eggs. Whisk wet ingredients into flour mixture.
  • Using a large spatula, fold in roasted shredded squash and stir until combined. Do not over-mix.
