Time 35m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 16

cooking spray
1 (29 ounce) can sweet potatoes, drained
1 ¾ cups white sugar
3 eggs
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon allspice
⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
½ cup milk
½ cup canola oil
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon turbinado sugar (such as Sugar in the Raw®), or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 18 muffin cups with cooking spray.
  • Place sweet potatoes into the bowl of a food processor and add sugar, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, allspice, and cloves. Process until smooth, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add milk, oil, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix thoroughly with a fork. Add flour and mix using a fork or spatula just until combined.
  • Spray a large serving spoon and use to spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups until it reaches the top of each. Sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes; pop muffins out and transfer to a wire rack to cool.

These muffins were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I might try using a different recipe next time.

These muffins were just okay. They weren't as moist as I expected them to be, and they were a bit too sweet for my taste.

These muffins were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor.

I made these muffins with chocolate chips and they were amazing! They were so moist and fluffy, and the chocolate chips added the perfect touch of sweetness.

These muffins were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might try adding some more mashed sweet potato next time.

I was looking for a healthy muffin recipe and these fit the bill perfectly. They're made with whole wheat flour, sweet potatoes, and maple syrup, so they're not too sweet. I'll definitely be making these again.
