Your favorite cafe mostly likely always has a tasty breakfast muffin on the menu that's a good option to go with. Breakfast muffins are a nourishing and inexpensive option, but make them yourself, save some dollars and ditch the gluten-filled cafe version!

This recipe can easily be tweaked. Turn it up a notch by adding some fresh spinach, fresh herbs, cherry tomatoes - the list is endless!

**Serves**: 6

**Why It's Good For You:**

We've removed the gluten from our breakfast muffin version and upped the nutrient density with one of our all-time-favorite vegetables: the sweet potato!

Sweet potatoes are rich in essential vitamins and minerals and are very versatile. They're loaded with antioxidants such as carotenoids, which are precursors to vitamin A in your body. Vitamin A is essential for healthy eyes, boosted immunity and protects you against the effects of aging. Bet your standard breakfast muffin from the cafe doesn't offer you a side of those benefits ;-)
