- Sweet Potatoes: Choose fresh, firm sweet potatoes for the best flavor and texture. Bake them until tender before mashing them.
- Mashed Sweet Potatoes: Make sure the mashed sweet potatoes are smooth and free of lumps. This will ensure a consistent texture in the muffins.
- Mixing: Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
- Baking: Bake the muffins in a preheated oven and check their doneness with a toothpick. Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin; it should come out clean when the muffins are done.
