HASSELBACK SWEET POTATO WITH PECAN STREUSEL



Hasselback Sweet Potato with Pecan Streusel image

Sweet potatoes come in different colors, from white to yellow to orange to orange-red. The darker the inside, the sweeter it is. I chose white because I was adding maple syrup and brown sugar, but any sweet potato will do.

These are Richards favorite muffins, I only make them in the fall and winter months, not really sure why I don't make them more often i guess I think muffins are for the colder months. But hope you like these as much as we do. Just a note you can replace the wheat flour with barley, spelt, or oat flour,
