Time 45m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 10

Vegetable oil for greasing muffin cups, plus 1/4 cup
3 slices bacon
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
Pinch salt
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 cup mashed sweet potato
1/2 cup buttermilk, plus more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease 12 standard muffin cups and place in the oven to heat. In a skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels, crumble, and set aside in a bowl. In a large bowl, stir the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, sugar, and salt together. In a medium bowl, mix the egg, oil, sweet potato, and 1/2 cup buttermilk together. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just until blended; the batter should be slightly lumpy. Add another 1 to 2 tablespoons of buttermilk if the dough seems too stiff. Gently fold in the bacon. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the muffins are browned.

DELICIOUS SWEET POTATO MUFFINS

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.

STEPHANIE L. TYSON'S SWEET POTATO CORNBREAD



Stephanie L. Tyson's Sweet Potato Cornbread image

North Carolina and sweet potatoes go way back. To this day, the state is a national leader in growing the crop. Stephanie L. Tyson, the chef who oversees the kitchen at a Winston-Salem spot called (appropriately) Sweet Potatoes, likes to blend one Southern staple into another. And here, the result is a cornbread laced with a holiday-friendly undercurrent of cinnamon and nutmeg. Ms. Tyson has said that the cornbread just clicks with a side of greens, but we have a feeling it will play well with cranberries and gravy, too.

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons/30 milliliters vegetable oil, plus more for the muffin tin
1 large sweet potato (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into large chunks
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/4 cups/300 milliliters milk
3/4 cup/94 grams all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon/1 gram ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees and lightly brush a 12-cup muffin tin with oil.
  • Place potato in a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until potato is tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the potato, then return to the pot and mash until mostly smooth. Measure out 1/2 cup and transfer to a large bowl (discard any remaining potato in the pot). Add eggs, oil and milk to bowl and stir to combine.

Pour batter into the prepared muffin cups and bake until the cornbread is puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.
