SWEET-POTATO MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease muffin tins to hold 12 muffins.
• Whisk together brown sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs in a small bowl.
• Mix together the flour, baking powder, spices, salt, and grated sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture, gradually incorporating it with the flour mixture. Stir in the raisins and walnuts
• Spoon the batter into the tins. I like to fill each tin to the rim to make a large cap. Bake the muffins for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Take the muffins out of the oven and run a paring knife carefully around each muffin, then invert the pan, and knock one edge against your work surface to release the muffins. Serve the muffins right away.
