Amazing One Bowl Sweet Potato Muffins
Use up leftover mashed sweet potatoes in these amazing moist and hearty muffins.
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup vegetable oil or canola oil
- 1¼ cups mashed sweet potato
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon cloves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper cups or grease and flour.
- In a large bowl whisk together the eggs with the brown sugar until smooth. Add vegetable oil, mashed sweet potato, sour cream and vanilla. Whisk until the mixture is very smooth.
- Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves on top of the sweet potato mixture. Begin mixing the dry ingredients together with a spatula without mixing it into the wet ingredients below. Once the dry ingredients are mostly mixed, begin incorporating everything together. Do not over mix. Once you stop seeing traces of flour, stop mixing. The batter will be quite thick and stiff.
- Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin cups and bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into one of the muffins comes out clean. Cool in pan for 5 minutes before removing. Serve warm.
