Anti-Inflammatory Coconut and Sweet Potato Muffins
with Ginger, Turmeric, Cinnamon and Maple Syrup

(The Best Years in Life) While most bread, cookies, cakes, and muffins are filled with highly inflammatory ingredients like refined sugars, processed wheat, and vegetable oils like canola or the “healthier” options like safflower, here is a recipe you can follow that will result in delicious baked goods that will work to heal your body instead of instigating disease.

Ingredients:

1 small sweet potato (preferably organic), roasted (should be about 1 cup, packed)
3 tbsp. Ground flaxseed in 1/2 cup of water* (let the flaxseed sit in water for 10 minutes; this substitutes your egg)
3/4 cup organic coconut milk
2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup pure maple syrup or raw organic honey
1 cup brown rice flour (preferably organic)
1/4 cup coconut flour (preferably organic)
1 tbsp. Aluminum-free baking powder**
1/2 tsp. pink Himalayan salt
1 tbsp. Ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg

*Or use egg, preferably cage-free organic

**Make your own aluminum-free baking powder with this easy recipe:

Aluminum-Free Homemade Baking Powder

(As always, The Best Years in Life recommends choosing organic content and fresh content as much as possible for the healthiest recipe. Also, wash all fruits and vegetables before cutting or adding to the recipe.)

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400F.

2. Use a skewer to make a dozen or more holes in your sweet potato skin, then cook it on a baking tray for an hour, or until soft.

3. Allow potato to cool, and then cut it in half and scoop out the insides into a large bowl. Add the flaxseed, coconut milk, olive oil, and maple syrup. Combine until smooth.

4. In a separate bowl, mix all of the dry ingredients, then add these to the potato mixture and stir until properly combined.

5. Oil your muffin tray thoroughly with coconut oil, then pour the batter evenly into the muffin tray so that each one is approximately ⅔ full.

6. Cook for 30-35 minutes.

7. Enjoy!
