"This is my recreation of the delicious muffins, voted best in Toronto, from a bakery in Kensington Market in Toronto. They're vegan, made with spelt, and absolutely delicious!"

Ready In
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
- Place diced sweet potato into a small pan with enough water to cover, bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain sweet potato; set aside to cool.
- Whisk together spelt flour, oats, baking soda, and cinnamon in a bowl. Stir together bananas, oil, and sugar in a separate bowl.
- Stir banana mixture into spelt mixture just until dry ingredients are moistened; fold in dates and sweet potato. Divide mixture evenly into 12 muffin cups.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 18 minutes. Cool in pan for 10 minutes; remove to cool completely on a wire rack.
Footnotes
- Cook's Note:
- You can replace the sweet potato and dates with other delicious combinations. Pear and walnut are also a particularly delicious combo.
