Sweet Potato Muffins

I baked up a batch of some fabulously healthy, yet terribly delicious muffins this morning and thought I’d share my recipe!

Sweet Potato Muffins

You’ll need:

2 small sweet potatoes

2 eggs

1/3 c. canola oil

1 large apple, peeled and diced

1c. AP flour

1c. whole wheat flour

¼ c. ground flaxseed meal

2 tbsp. pumpkin pie spice

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. baking soda

½ tsp. salt

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Bake or microwave the sweet potatoes until tender and scoop out the flesh (you’ll need about 1 cup). Mash or puree potato until smooth, then add the eggs, oil and apple.

Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly, then add to sweet potato mixture and stir until just combined.

Spoon into greased muffin or mini muffin pan and bake 10 minutes for mini muffins, 15 to 20 minutes for full sized (or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean).

Enjoy!
