Sweet Potatoes Cranberries Muffins

I came across a few sweet potatoes recipes and so I decided to make this week a Sweet Potatoes Weekend. Thanks to Sifu Kenneth for this wonderful recipe, quick and easy to make. Though it didn't have the strong sweet potatoes taste in the muffins, the texture was moist and nice. Indeed a great & healthy idea to have sweet potatoes in muffins :)

Ingredients 

150g mashed sweet potatoes (steamed and mashed)
50g cranberries
200g self raising flour
1/2 tsp cinnamon powder (optional)
1/2 tsp baking soda
150g caster sugar
100g cooking oil
50g milk
2 eggs
Cranberries (optional for toppings)

Directions

1. Preheat oven at 180 Deg C and prepare 6-8 muffin cups.
2. Put all the dry ingredients (mashed potatoes, cranberries, self raising flour, baking soda and castor sugar), stir until it resemble some crumbles. In another bowl, mixed all wet ingredients (cooking oil, milk and eggs) until well combined. 
3. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients.Use a spoon to lightly mix it until well combined. Do not over mix the batter. Slightly lumpy is acceptable for muffins. Over mixing results in chewy texture of the muffins.
4. Transfer the batter to the muffin cups (1/2 cups) and baked in the pre-heated oven of 180 deg C for 25-30mins or until a skewer inserted in the centre of the muffin comes out clean.
