Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 | Sweet Potato |
| 2 | Eggs |
| 2/3 | cup Milk |
| 1/4 | cup Honey |
| 2 | tbsp Butter |
| 2 | cups All-Purpose Flour |
| 2 | tsp Baking Powder |

Instructions
-
Prepare Sweet Potato Mixture:
- Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, beat together the sweet potato, eggs, milk, honey, and butter until well combined and smooth.
-
-
Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and ground ginger until evenly mixed.
-
Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the sweet potato mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay!
-
Prepare Muffin Tins:
- Grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full with the batter.
-
Add Pecan Toppings:
- Place a pecan half on top of each muffin, gently pressing it into the batter.
-
Bake to Perfection:
- Slide the muffin tin into the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes.
- Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick or cake tester into the center of a muffin; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once baked to golden perfection, remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for a few minutes.
- Transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely or serve them warm for a comforting treat!
