Directions

First, wash the sweet potatoes, then peel and grate. Preheat oven to 375ºF and oil spray the muffin tin or use (and spray) silicon cupcake holders.

2) In a bowl combine grated sweet potato, cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. Using a tablespoon, scoop ~1T of sweet potato mixture in the bottom of 12 muffin tin. Use your fingers to create a bit of a well in each one, add more mixture if needed. (I made 16 muffins.)

3) Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk, then spoon egg into each cup to fill the well. Bake eggs at ~25-35min until eggs are done.

4) Remove from oven and let cool by placing the muffins on a cooling rack. Add a few drops of hot sauce to the top just before serving.

Comment

I was surprised that I could do this and that they came out tasting good and eggy. There is no added oil, other than a quick spray and what leaches from the cheese. It is a very light tasting muffin that holds together well. I think the hot sauce topping is a must for flavor and looks.
