How to Make Cranberry Sweet Potato Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1/2 cup milk, 1 cup cooked and mashed sweet potato (about 1 medium), and 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries.
  6. Fill each muffin liner about halfway full.
  7. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sprinkle evenly over the muffins.
  8. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
