Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with muffin liners or spray with non-stick spray.
- Prepare Sweet Potatoes: If you haven't already, cook and mash the sweet potatoes until smooth. Allow them to cool slightly.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla protein powder, rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

- Cool and Enjoy: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
