Best Disappearing Sweet Potato Muffins Recipes

DISAPPEARING SWEET POTATO MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease muffin tins to hold 12 muffins.
• Whisk together brown sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs in a small bowl.
• Mix together the flour, baking powder, spices, salt, and grated sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture, gradually incorporating it with the flour mixture. Stir in the raisins and walnuts.
• Spoon the batter into the tins. I like to fill each tin to the rim to make a large cap. Bake the muffins for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Take the muffins out of the oven and run a paring knife carefully around each muffin, then invert the pan, and knock one edge against your work surface to release the muffins. Serve the muffins right away.

GLUTEN FREE DISAPPEARING SWEET POTATO MUFFINS

Steps:

• Whisk together the brown rice flour, sorghum, tapioca starch, guar gum, baking powder, spices, salt and grated sweet potato. Toast the almonds in a dry stainless steel pan until you can smell them (about 5 minutes stirring often). Grind the almonds and quinoa. Mix well with dry ingredients until there are no lumps.
• In a medium bowl melt coconut oil if you are using whisk in honey, vanilla and eggs (if coconut oil is too hot it will cook the eggs so do them separately if you use coconut oil).
• Mix wet ingredients into the dry and fold in the walnuts and drained raisins if you're using them.
• Let dough sit for 30 minutes to allow guar gum to set.
• If you use an ice-cream scoop you can cook these on a cookie tray covered with parchment because they don't spread much. Or you can grease and flour the cookie tray, spread it in and make a big bar out of it. That's what I do now, it's much easier and faster.
• Cook in a 350 degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean.
