Flourless Sweet Potato Muffins:

If you are looking for a delicious breakfast on-the-go option, try these flourless sweet potato muffins. They are packed with nothing but real ingredients, super easy to prep, and make for a perfect meal prep breakfast option.

Ingredients you will need:

  1. Steamed sweet potato ( I used Japanese sweet potato)
  2. Eggs
  3. Maple syrup
  4. Crunchy almond butter or substitute any nut/seed butter you prefer
  5. Coconut oil
  6. Vanilla extract
  7. Baking soda
  8. Cinnamon
  9. Primal Palate gingersnap seasoning or substitute ginger spice
  10. Flaxseed meal
  11. Chocolate chips

Steaming sweet potatoes:

I steamed my sweet potatoes in my instant pot, but you can steam them in a pot or even roast them. I added my trivet to the pot, added 1 cup of water, set to steam function, and cooked for 5 minutes. Once done I quickly released pressure and with a fork I smashed up. Let cool completely before adding along to the wet ingredients.

Prepping the muffins:

Add the wet ingredients to a bowl and with a handheld mixer mix until all ingredients are blended. Then add in the dry ingredients and mix. Fold in the chocolate chips, add batter to a lined muffin tin, filling about 3/4 of the way. Top with more chocolate chips and bake 350 F for 17-20 minutes ( I did 17 minutes in my convection oven).

 

How to store:

I like to store mine in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They also freeze really well so if you don’t plan on eating the whole batch at once, just freeze them for another day.
