Recipe: sweet potato muffins

Play hide-the-veggies with your kids using this sweet recipe. The muffins are especially good served warm from the oven. Sprog 2 helped me make a batch on the weekend, but refused to try them because she knew the secret ingredient. Sprog 1, on the other hand, has been hoovering them up. For more muffin recipes, check out my latest blog at Village Voices.
