Have a left over sweet potato and don't really feel like eating one again? This is a perfect place to ditch that sweet potato so it can have a new life and you can pat yourself on the back for not wasting it. I know this recipe feels more fall like, but working on muffin recipes for a cookbook that will be a year round endeavor...has me baking a thanksgiving special in June. Either way, these are amazing. They are not too sweet, they are actually only slightly sweet.
And the crunch from that topping is so special!

Sweet Potato Cinnamon Pecan Muffins
Ingredients:
1/4 cup of unsalted butter (melted)
1/2 cup mashed sweet potato
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut sugar
2/3 cup milk
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups of flour (fresh ground soft white wheat)
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 tsp cinnamon
optional: pinch of nutmeg
optional topping:
1/2 cup chopped pecans
2 tbs flour
1 tbs butter
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add all the dry ingredients, and then the wet ingredients, the cold sweet potato ( mashed), and butter last. Mix all together, scoop into the muffin tin, fill about 1/2 way. Top with optional topping- you won't regret it!
Grease your muffin tin. I like to use coconut oil spray or old fashioned paper towel and dip in the coconut oil jar. I use a USA muffin pan, and skip this step all together. They are the best muffin pans I have ever had. And there are a no fuss clean up. They wipe clean.
Bake 12-15 minutes, allow to cool and enjoy these as a snack or breakfast this week!
enjoy!

The list link below ranks our 10 favorites, with a bias toward the ones that best link reflect the decade's aesthetic. link They're not just cool watches. They're representative watches. And what they represent is an era of exuberant imagination.
The original Seamaster 600 Ploprof was designed to be completely hermetically sealed so an HEV would not be necessary. The idea being that if helium link never made its way in, it would never need a way link out through a helium escape valve. When the 2009 Ploprof was released with a helium escape link valve, it was a major point of contention, along with the watch growing a few millimeters.
Just prior to writing up these two introductions, I checked link in with a friend who had been thinking about having his Marinemaster 300 PVD-coated, so naturally, his interest was piqued by this limited edition with its hard-black coating. If his reaction is any barometer, I think that this a watch that people are going to love, and come to think of it, both of these link new references can be viewed as Seiko acknowledging the mod link community that has grown up around its dive watches.
Being a 5610, the Bamford London x G-Shock 5610 Limited Edition has atomic radio sync timekeeping, a suite link of quartz-powered functions (chronograph, timer, alarm, link world time), solar power, and its resin case is both shock-resistant link and water-resistant to 200 meters.
The main horological attractions are no doubt Belfort's two (sort of) gold watches. He wears one for most of the second act, and the other in the third. Much like the Azoff Daytona, one of Belfort's watches has also been mis-spotted: Many watch nerds have said yellow gold Rolex GMT Master link on link a jubilee bracelet. It's not a bad guess, until you remember that link DiCaprio was a TAG Heuer ambassador.
