Makes 12 muffins
I’m sure you’ve noticed by now that I love baking with sweet potatoes. They provide extra sweetness while packing in tons of healthy fiber. These muffins are naturally gluten and dairy-free, and take no time to throw together. Try making them with your kids, they will become your family’s favorite go-to anytime snack!
