The Most Amazing Sweet Potato Muffins -

I am always trying different recipes for my family and I to enjoy. I wanted to make something with Sweet Potatoes that my whole family would enjoy and these muffins are perfection. I make them at least once a week and I hope it becomes a favorite in your household, as well.

Sweet Potaoes are rich in vitamins and antioxidants. Sweet Potatoes are a great source of fiber which help aids in digestion and helps prevent constipation. They are an excellent source of beta-carotene which helps support immune function and improve vision. They can also, stabilize blood sugar levels since they have a lower glycemic index than regular potatoes. Incorporate sweet potatoes in your diet and you will not just enjoy the delicious taste but, you will also enjoy the health benefits of eating them.

*To roast sweet potatoes: in oven at 400 degrees F for at least 45 minutes (I clean my sweet potatoes and then rub them with Olive Oil and pierce several times with fork and bake in the oven on parchment paper on a baking sheet) Once fully cooked, let the sweet potato cool. I do this ahead of time and store the potatoes (no skin in any air tight container for when I want to bake)
