Blueberry muffin madness
Okay, this one was one for the books.
Serious deliciousness going on here.
I wasn’t exactly sure how my experiment was going to work out, but it was epic!
I was craving a healthy-oatmeal-like-blueberry-muffin, but I’m waaaaay into baking with sweet potatoes, as you probably know by now, so I went with it!
I swapped the oats and flour for sweet potato, added in all the other good stuff, and topped it off with bluebs.
After popping them into the oven and waiting anxiously to stuff my face with muffins, they finally came out…
Then we wait for them to cool….
Or did we?
Nope, we didn’t!
I’m not that patient- that’s my sister. 🙂
I couldn’t wait, okay!
Don’t judge the crumbly muffin on my face, I had to taste test- it was for the job!
Btw, I do suggest waiting, because they were a bit crumbly straight out of the oven, but after I waited a bit and by the time seconds came around, they were all good man.
Really, really, really good!
Like, I-want-to-eat-them-all-by-myself-good. 🙂
In the spirit of impatience, I forgot to get any real pictures, so these are just some crappy pictures off my phone, yikes!
But, you guys all went crazy for the recipe when I showed you a preview earlier, so I figured why not give the people what they want?
So, here we are- crappy pictures and all.
(They taste really good though, if that counts?)
For this recipe, I like to use this stainless steel muffin pan.
Happy breakfast-going to you all!
Sweet Potato Blueberry Muffins
Ingredients
- 1 medium white sweet potato
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons tapioca flour
- 2 tablespoons golden flax meal
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup blueberries fresh
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners or grease with coconut oil.
- Chop sweet potato into 1/2" rounds. In a food processor blend sweet potato chunks until minced.
- Add rest of ingredients to the food processor (except blueberries) and blend until smooth, then stir in blueberries by hand- you can reserve half the blueberries to sprinkle on top before baking, if you like.
- Use a large ice-cream scoop to fill the muffin pan with batter. Bake on 350F for 50 minutes until golden. You will know when they are done when a clean knife or toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
