Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease or paper-line 12 standard-size muffin cups.

Add banana, pumpkin, milk, flax, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, cloves, salt and vanilla to a blender or food processor container and blend until smooth.

Add bread cubes to a large bowl and pour in the pumpkin mixture. Stir to coat all the bread and let sit 5 minutes.

Place in preheated oven and bake 20 minutes or until set. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before unmolding.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Stir in apples, maple syrup and remaining cinnamon. Simmer 10 minutes or until apples soften.
