Directions
Disappearing Sweet Potato Muffins, These are really good and a great way to get some good stuff into my kids, they eat them like candy! I didn’t like the recipes with cooked/mashed sweet potatoes, so when I found this one, I was so excited These smell absolutely wonderful when they are cooking too! We usually leave out the nuts, but put in the raisins, Loved these! I had about 3-5 lbs of potatoes, which I grated coarsely, and ended up doing a triple batch of muffins, so it took about 1+ lb of sweet potato per batch The triple batch made 3 dz regular muffins plus 2-4 dz mini muffins, and I filled the cups to the rims They were moist, dense, and kept a few days used all applesauce instead of oil, and used 1 c of wheat flour (because I forgot I was going to use wheat until I was almost done measuring) Put almonds and raisins in the last 2/3 of the muffins, and I actually preferred them without raisins because I’m not super fond of raisins, but everyone else liked them in I think chocolate chips would be really good They popped right out of my greased silicone muffin pans nicely I didn’t think they were too sweet, just right
Update: I forgot to mention that I don’t peel my sweet potatoes, only wash them and cut off bad spots I also tried with 1/2 wheat flour, almonds and milk chocolate chips with good results Update #2 – I quadrupled the batch today – but a 15 oz can of applesauce is only 1 1/2 cups, so I had to add some oil I didn’t put any add-ins (no nuts, raisins, coconut, or chocolate chips), and i think it needed some They were still good, but a little something extra to break it up would have been better Got 5 dozen regular and about 20 mini muffins , Loved these!

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. |
