Sweet Potato Muffins

These delicious and healthy muffins seem to please everyone--  even my daughter, who normally won't touch sweet potatoes, loves these!

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a large bowl whisk together:

1 cup oatmeal
1 cup white whole wheat flour or whole wheat pastry flower
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. cloves

In another large bowl whisk:

1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup applesauce
1/4 cup oil
1/4 cup skim milk
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla

Add to the wet ingredients:

1 cup fresh sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed

Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, mix just a few times, then add:

1/3 cup butterscotch chips

Mix a few more times.

Fill 12 lined muffin tins and bake about 20 minutes. Enjoy!
