Directions:

Place sweet potato in a small saucepan and cover with water. Cook about 25 minutes before pureeing in a food processor. Remove puree and set aside.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter and flour muffin pan or line with muffin papers. With an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy; stir in sweet potato puree and egg.

Sift together flour, salt, nutmeg, ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir half the dry ingredients into creamed mixture; stir in water, then remaining dry ingredients.

Using an ice cream scoop, fill muffin cups two thirds full of batter; bake until dry on top and a skewer inserted in center comes out clean (18 to 20 minutes).
