Zucchini Sweet Potato And Raisin Muffins Recipes

SWEET POTATO ZUCCHINI MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Brush the top of a muffin tin with a little vegetable oil and then add muffin cup liners (the oil keeps the baked muffin tops from sticking!).
• Mix 2 cups (260 grams) flour, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves in a small bowl. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk 1 cup (205 grams) brown sugar and 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar together to combine. Mix to ensure there are no clumps.
• Add 3/4 cup (138 grams) vegetable oil, 3 eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla and whisk until everything is mixed and fully incorporated.
• Add 1.5 cups (190 grams) shredded zucchini and 1.5 cups (165 grams) sweet potato and stir to combine.
• Add dry ingredients and fold in until just mixed in. If using any mix-ins, add those in now as well!
• Divide batter among lined muffin tins, filling up to the top. I generally get exactly 12 muffins out of this, but you might get a few more (depending on size of zucchini and sweet potato - see note below)
• Bake for 18-22 minutes, until a toothpick or knife inserted comes out clean.
• Let cool before enjoying.
• Leftover muffins will stay out for 1-2 days (covered). After that I suggest keeping them in the fridge.

ZUCCHINI RAISIN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line muffin cups with paper liners.
• Mix flour, salt, nutmeg, baking soda, and baking powder in a mixing bowl.
• Beat egg, sugar, and vegetable oil together in a large bowl. Fold zucchini and raisins into egg mixture until evenly mixed. Stir flour mixture into the wet mixture to make a batter. Divide batter into 12 muffin cups to about 2/3 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 25 minutes.

SWEET POTATO & RAISIN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Coat the bottoms of 12 medium muffin cups with no-stick cooking spray.
• Add all the ingredients, EXCEPT the cinnamon-sugar, to a large mixing bowl; mix just until the flour is moistened. (COOK'S TIP: Do not over mix the batter or the muffins will be tough when baked.).
• Fill the muffin cups 2/3 full (batter should be lumpy).
• Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar over batter in each muffin cup.
• Bake 18 - 20 minutes on rack in the center of oven. Immediately remove from pan and place on baker's wire rack to cool.
