These muffins are the perfect way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I always have a few sweet potatoes lying around, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use them in.

I love that these muffins are made with whole wheat flour. They're a much healthier option than traditional muffins.

These muffins were a disaster! They were dry and crumbly, and the raisins were hard and chewy. I don't know what went wrong.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These muffins were a hit! They were moist and fluffy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The raisins added a nice touch of flavor and texture. I will definitely be making these again.
