Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease muffin tins to hold 12 muffins.
- Whisk together brown sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs in a small bowl.
- Mix together the flour, baking powder, spices, salt, and grated sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture, gradually incorporating it with the flour mixture. Stir in the raisins and walnuts
- 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.

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.

Tips:
- Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes with smooth skin. Avoid any that are soft, bruised, or have signs of sprouting.
- Prick the sweet potatoes before baking: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from bursting.
- Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato. If it goes in easily, the potato is done.
- Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before handling: This will make them easier to peel and mash.
- Use a food processor or blender to mash the sweet potatoes: This will give you a smooth, lump-free puree.
- Season the sweet potato puree to taste: Add spices, herbs, and other seasonings to your liking.
- Don't overmix the muffin batter: Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full: This will allow the muffins to rise properly.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack: This will help them hold their shape.
Conclusion:
These spiced sweet potato muffins are a delicious and healthy way to start your day. They are packed with nutrients and flavor, and they are easy to make.
