Wonderful and moist, but I'd suggest going a little lighter on the honey.
2/3 cup cooked sweet potatoes or yams
4 Tbsp. butter
½ cup honey
1 egg
¾ cup unbleached flour
2 tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. cinnamon
¼ tsp. nutmeg
¼ cup milk or water
¼ cup chopped raisins
¼ cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Cream butter; add honey, potatoes and egg. Mix well. Add dry ingredients and mix. Add liquid, raisins and nuts; mix until blended. Do not overmix. If too wet, add a bit more flour. Pour into greased muffin tins, filling each completely full. Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Yields 6 large muffins. Make a large batch and freeze some. Brighter colors in fruits and vegetables provide more vitamins, so choose deep orange yams.
