Categories     Bread     Quick Bread Recipes     Muffin Recipes

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ⅛ cups packed brown sugar
½ cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground allspice
½ teaspoon salt
4 cups peeled, shredded sweet potato
½ cup raisins
1 cup walnuts

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.

DELICIOUS SWEET POTATO MUFFINS



Delicious Sweet Potato Muffins image

I adapted a pumpkin muffin recipe to come up with this delectable sweet potato concoction that is a true muffin, and not a cake! I think the sweet potato lends even more flavor than pumpkin. Added bonus: this recipe just happens to be dairy free, a plus for those who are intolerant to dairy.
