Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by spraying with cooking spray or lining with paper liners. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Cook the sweet potato: Pierce the sweet potato several times with a fork. Microwave on high until tender, about 6-8 minutes. Alternatively, roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 30-40 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Let cool slightly, then peel and dice. (10 minutes)

03

Step

In a large bowl, combine the diced sweet potato, biscuit mix, brown sugar, milk, grated zucchini, eggs, melted butter, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and nutmeg. If desired, add chopped nuts. Mix until just combined; do not overmix. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. (30 minutes)

06

Step

Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use melted butter instead of margarine.
Feel free to adjust the amount of cinnamon and nutmeg to your preference.
Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
These muffins are also delicious with a cream cheese frosting or a simple glaze.
