Name: Sweet Potato Muffins (Gma)
Ingredients: 2 c Sifted unbleached all-purpose flour; 1 tb Baking powder; 1/2 ts Salt; 2 Eggs OR 1/2 c. egg substitute; 1 md Sweet potato; baked and peeled (about 1 c. mashed); 1/3 c Sugar; 1 c 1% lowfat milk; or regular; 1/3 c Vegetable oil; 2 tb Toasted wheat germ; 2 tb Molasses; 1 ts Cinnamon; 1/2 ts Ground cloves; 1/4 ts Nutmeg; 1/2 c Raisins

Sin comes to us, taps us on the shoulder or tugs at our shirttail and whispers in our ear: “You deserve better than what God has provided. He’s holding out on you. You deserve to feel good about yourself. I’ll affirm you in a way no one else can. Why live in misery any longer? Come to me. I’ll give you a sense of power you’ve never known before. I’ll expand your influence. I’ll fill your heart with a sense of accomplishment. I’ll nourish your soul. You’ve never had a physical rush like the one I’ve got in store for you. Obeying God is boring. It’s a pain. He’s always telling you to do stuff that’s difficult and burdensome and inconvenient or ordering you to forsake the few things that really bring you happiness. Come on. You’ve only got one life. Obedience is ugly. My way is fun. My way feels good.”

INSTRUCTIONS

Spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin pan with cooking spray or line the cups with
paper liners. Preheat oven to 400F. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt
into a large bowl. In food processor, blend eggs, potato, and sugar. (Or by
hand: beat eggs and mash potatoes before blending.) Add milk, oil, wheat
germ, molasses, and spices; process or beat until smooth. Pour liquid
mixture into dry ingredients. Mix just enough to blend. Stir in raisins.
Divide the batter between muffin cups. As soon as muffins are in the oven,
reduce heat to 350F. Bake in the top third of the oven for 25 minutes or
until they are lightly browned on top and dry inside. Serve warm or at room
temperature.

Notes: When baking sweet potatoes for dinner, bake one extra to make these
muffins for the next day. With the aid of a food processor, this batter is
especially quick and easy to prepare. Sweet potatoes, whole eggs, wheat
germ, molasses, and raisins are all rich in iron, which guards against
fatigue and depression. Good Morning America
