Potato Magdalenes for Thermomix
These sweet potato muffins are a way to use up leftover sweet potato. I had a beautiful sweet potato I needed to use up, and since my husband loves muffins for breakfast, I made the ones you see in the photo. When they're freshly baked, I freeze all but 3 or 4, and then when I defrost them, they're perfect.
