  • ¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 1 cup mashed cooked sweet potatoes at room temperature
  • 1 cup finely diced mango
  • ½ teaspoons grated orange zest
  • 1 large egg

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F/218° C. Line 12 muffin tin with liner or grease well and set aside.
  • In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, and salt.

Bake the muffin at 425°F / 218°C for 5 minutes then reduce the temperature to 350°F (177°C) (do not open the oven door or remove the muffins, just leave them in and reduce the temperature) and bake for another 10 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool the muffin in muffin tin for 5 minutes then transfer to wire rack and cool completely.
