    Sweet Potato Bran Muffins

    1 1/2 cups bran cereal
    1 cup milk
    1 egg
    1 cup purple sweetie sweet potatoes -- cooked*
    1/2 cup honey
    3 tbsp. lemon juice
    grated rind from 2 large oranges
    3/4 cup raisins -- soaked and well drained
    1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
    1 tsp. baking soda

    In a large bowl, pour milk onto cereal and let stand.

    Mash enough sweet potato with lemon juice to measure 1 cup. Add potato to the milk and cereal, along with a beaten egg, honey, orange rind, and raisins. Mix well.

    In a smaller bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder and soda. Mix together with the wet ingredients and immediately divide into a greased muffin pan for 12. Bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees F.for approximately 25 minutes.

    Let stand for 8 - 10 minutes before removing from pan.

    Helpful Hints:

    Muffins have been made with carrots, corn, soy and more, so now add this nutty taste adventure with the purple-skinned, sweet potatoes from Honduras.

    *Judi's note:Regular potatoes may be used here if you can't find the purple ones.

    Makes 12 muffins
