VEGAN SWEET POTATO MUFFIN RECIPE:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • Ener-G egg replacer for 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries (optional)

Preparation:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and lightly grease or line a muffin tin.

In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.

Add the egg replacer, oil, and maple syrup, then the pecans and cranberries, stirring just until combined.

Fill muffin tins about 1/3 full with batter and bake for 15 minutes.

I tried this recipe and WOW delicious...I would reccomend mashing the crap out of those sweet potatoes before putting them in, I baked them while I measured the rest of the ingrediants and I think next time I'll bake them well in advance for a better texture. Mmm :)

I found the recipe here.
Here is an alternate recipe which I haven't tried but which uses applesauce.
