Saw Yam Tea Cake recipe from Alex Goh's 'Creative making of Cakes', but since I don have yam and coconut milk, I substituted with sweet potato, yogurt and milk.
Ingredients
(A)
250g butter
180g sugar
Pinch of salt
(B)
4 eggs
(C)
180g sweet potato, steamed (I used those purple potatoes)
25g sugar
80ml yogurt
80ml milk
(D)
290g flour
1 tbsp milk powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
- Cream (A) til light and fluffy
- Add (B) and cream til light and smooth
- Mix (C) til well blended while the cooked sweet potato is still hot. Leave to cool. Add it into the above mixture and mix til combined
- Lastly, fold in the sieved (D) and mix til well incorporated
- Pour mixture into muffin cups
- Bake at 180 C for 20 minutes
After I mashed the sweet potato, I found that it contained some tiny roots, afraid that it may ruin the texture, I rub it thru a sieve to get rid of the roots and made the sweet potato smoother, cost me about 15 minutes for this tedious process.
I had the 1st batch with chocolate chips which is little girls favorites
2nd batch with toffee bits
Satisfied with the texture and taste, fluffy and yummy!

May i ask why you use double cuppy casings when you bake muffins? Thanks.
Hi, Family First, well, I used double casing for those little muffin cups only, cos they r very thin. If I used only one, they'd go out of shapes and look terribly ugly.
Hi gal. Thanks for the cutey muffins! They are delicious! We finished them in just seconds! :D
Hi, Duckz! Thanks 4 the comment, will definitely give u a bigger batch next time, :)
The muffins look fantastic!
Thanks, Susan! Try it, really yummy, even little girl who don fancy sweet potato, ate 4 mini muffin in 1 go!
I like how you put the choc chips and tofee bits on the muffin. Maybe I can trick my kids into eating sweet potato muffins too.
Hi 3lilangels, little girl was a bit skeptical when I told her it was sweet potato muffins, but after trying the 1st one, she finished 4!
