Sweet Potato Muffins With A Cinnamon Spiced Glaze

August 14, 2017 By hebaqaden Leave a Comment

The most succulent muffins you may ever eat! Sweet potato muffins with a cinnamon spiced brown sugar glaze, so delicious and egg free!

These are hands down the best muffins I have ever made. Yeah I said it. I am crazy about these muffins and have made them twice in 2 days, casually going to make these tomorrow as well. I really am.

They are soooooo

  • Soft
  • Moist
  • Healthy-ish
  • Egg free
  • Addictive
  • Insanely delicious

This recipe came out as a accident, I was meant to add egg into the mixture as I do with most muffins I make. But after mixing the dry mixture, I had no eggs. I even mashed the sweet potato at this point, (Yeah, I know check you have all the ingredients before baking!)

Mix dry ingredients together in 1 bowl and mix the wet ingredients together in 1 bowl
Mix dry ingredients together in 1 bowl and mix the wet ingredients together in 1 bowl
Pour the wet mixture into the dry bowl and gently fold
Pour the wet mixture into the dry bowl and gently fold

So I just carried on and made the batter without any eggs and hoped for the best.

Well folks, that’s what I got – The Best. Epic. Yummy. Perfect. Faultless sweet potato muffins.

Top off an amazing muffin with a crumb top and a delectable glaze? Uh yeah.

The easiest and healthiest crumble like ever:

Honey and ground almonds

Turns into a crumble texture

The easiest glaze like ever:

Add milk to brown sugar spice mixture
Add milk to brown sugar spice mixture
Turns in to a lovely glaze

Voila. Simple as that.

You have to try these guys. My kids scoffed these down so damn quick. They had one without the glaze as a morning snack and with the glaze as a cheeky after dinner desert.
