- 175 grams floury potatoes, peeled
- 75 grams self-raising flour + for dusting
- cinnamon-butter* as topping
- 2 tbsps brown sugar
- a tsp of baking powder
- 125 grams raisins
- 4 eggs, separated
Procedure:
- Lightly grease and flour a 12 cup muffin tin. Dice the potatoes and cook in a saucepan of boiling water for about 10 minutes or until tender. Air-dry then mashed until smooth.
- Transfer the mashed potatoes to a mixing bowl and add the flour, sugar, baking powder, raisins and egg yolks. Stir well to mix thoroughly.
- In a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until they are standing in peaks. Using a metal spoon, gently fold them into the potato mixture until fully incorporated.
- Divide the mixture among the 12 prepared cups in the muffin tin.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. Then, lower the temperature at 325 degrees Fahrenheit and cook the muffins for another 7-10 minutes or until risen.
- Remove the muffins form the tin. Spread cinnamon-butter on top.
- Serve warm.
*To make cinnamon-butter: Blend well a softened 1/3 cup of butter with a large pinch of ground cinnamon.
