I absolutely love whipping up foods that can be taken on-the-go for breakfast or as a snack! We all lead busy lives and some mornings you choose an extra 20 minutes in bed over having breakfast before you leave! But why not have the best of both world and prepare yourself with a batch of nutritious muffins that you can grab and go!
These go perfectly with Greek yoghurt!

Bake your sweet potato in the oven for around 40 mins until completely cooked and nice and soft. Remove the skin.
