Pumpkin Sweet Potato Cupcakes

PumpkinSweetPotatoCupcakes

I’m crafting these pumpkiny beauties with my King Arthur Flour, which you can enter to win. This is my first time using cake flour or cake enhancer (don’t worry, it’s all-natural), so I’m pretty excited to see the results. I just had to make pumpkin cupcakes; not only because I’m obsessed with pumpkin but also because it’s November! That means it’s totally acceptable that I make everything pumpkin, for a month at least. I get a free pass to craft every bizarre pumpkin concoction for the rest of the month.

As for the sweet potato, well, it goes a little something like this: I pull out the remainder of a can of pumpkin, thinking it’ll be enough. It’s not, it’s only about 3/4 of a cup. So, instead of opening up another can, I go to my freezer stock of pumpkin puree. But, alas, there were two bags of orange pucks in there (apparently), and since I’m a notorious non-labeler, I pulled out the sweet potato puree instead. But hey, experimentation, whether intentional or not, is the spice of life, right? I noticed about the time that I threw the thawed puree in the mix and noticed a bit of potato skin. 🙂

Don’t forget to enter to win the King Arthur Flour prize package I used to create these lovely treats, the Holiday Baking Prize Pack, as well as the Fall Picnic Prize Pack.

The Results

Yummy! So fluffy and light, too! I absolutely love the natural cake enhancer. Look how huge the domes are! Beautiful. And, the taste, in spite of my little mishap, is fantastic. I love, love, love these cupcakes just the way they are. I didn’t bother with cream cheese frosting, but if I did, I think I’d mix in some Pumpkin Spice Syrup for a little extra yumminess.
