WARM SWEET POTATO MUFFINS

These spicy, warm muffins are going to disappear quickly! Nothing smells better in the morning than homemade muffins baking in the oven with that aromatic smell of cinnamon and nutmeg. They are also lovely for the kiddos in the afternoon for snacktime with a cold glass of milk! Hope y'all enjoy!
