This past weekend, as I sat on the bleachers watching the boy’s sectional swim meet, my dear friend, Cindy asked if I had taken the time to make her Sweet Potato Morning Glory Muffins. I thought about it for a minute and said I wasn’t even sure that she gave me the recipe. She said that I had “liked” it on her Facebook page so I must have seen the recipe. Well, shortly after I arrived home, I asked M if she might be interested in making the muffins for her lunchbox this week. She agreed that the recipe sounded great. Last night, after her distance track practice, M threw together the ingredients for these delicious muffins. Wow, they are incredibly delicious! We packed them in an air-tight container so that, hopefully, she will have them for the rest of the school week. Thanks, Cindy, for a fabulous recipe! It’s a keeper!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine almond flour, cinnamon, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl; mix well. Add remaining ingredients and mix just until thoroughly blended.
Coat muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray (or use paper liners) and divide batter among 18 mini muffin cups.
Bake for 11- 13 minutes or until muffins are cooked all the way through.
These are delicious! You can substitute pumpkin for sweet potato and cranberries for raisins. I also like almond extract instead if vanilla. All make for a moist and delicious recipe.
You could substitute whole wheat flour too. I understand your concern about the almond flour. It is quite pricey. Especially for a student on a fixed budget. Try another type of flour if need be. Enjoy!
You are lucky to have such a resource close by! That’s so wonderful. I’ll have to look for something similar in my area. Thank you for your valued comment! Have a great day!
You could also use pumpkin or sunflower seeds for added crunch. Thanks for your valued comment. Have a great day!
Indeed, Dani! And thank goodness for friends that will share their great recipes too!
Sweet potato? These are AWESOME!!! I must try them out!!
Talk about “comfort food”… Linda, these look great!
Thanks, Debbie. I can’t take credit… Cindy shared her recipe and M mixed up this particular batch of goodies! Thanks for your comment!
Well, M certainly thinks they are, Shanna. She’s made them quite a few times in the short period of time that Cindy shared her recipe.
I can’t wait to try these! Simplymadekitchenandcrafts, fantastic work on this one.
These are one of our absolute favorites! We love these muffins! Thank you for reblogging the recipe. I appreciate your support?
You are very welcome, Linda. these muffins look too good to not share with folks on my end.
