I'm always looking for ways to "healthify" recipes that my husband critiques. He loves the light texture and spicy streusel of these muffins. —Meredith Hedeen, New Kensington, Pennsylvania

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 large eggs, room temperature, beaten
1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup canola oil
3 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
STREUSEL:
2 tablespoons biscuit/baking mix
2 tablespoons quick-cooking oats
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons cold butter
1 tablespoon finely chopped crystallized ginger

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the first 9 ingredients. In another bowl, combine the eggs, sweet potatoes, water, oil and applesauce. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
Coat mini-muffin cups with cooking spray or use paper liners; fill two-thirds full. For streusel, combine the baking mix, oats and sugars; cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in ginger. Sprinkle over batter.
Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
