Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease muffin tins to hold 12 muffins.
- Whisk together brown sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs in a small bowl.
- Mix together the flour, baking powder, spices, salt, and grated sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture, gradually incorporating it with the flour mixture. Stir in the raisins and walnuts
- Spoon the batter into the tins. I like to fill each tin to the rim to make a large cap. Bake the muffins for 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Take the muffins out of the oven and run a paring knife carefully around each muffin, then invert the pan, and knock one edge against your work surface to release the muffins. Serve the muffins right away.

CHEF JOHN'S SWEET POTATO MUFFINS
Instead of sweet potato pie (which I'm not that fond of), I made sweet potato muffins and I was thrilled with the results. Muffin or cupcake? Frosted or unfrosted? Doesn't matter--these really are fantastic.

Tips:
- Use a food processor to quickly and easily grate the sweet potatoes. If you don't have a food processor, you can grate them by hand using a box grater.
- Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour will make your muffins dry and dense.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will toughen the muffins.
- Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. This will prevent them from overflowing in the oven.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the muffins.
- Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
