This recipe is a gem. It was handed down to my grandmother (86 years young) in 1988 from my grandfather’s Aunt Mirtle.
It’s a sweet and simple recipe getting most of it’s moisture from the vegetables added in.
This had to have been one of the first recipes I wrote in my book, there were an embarrassingly large amount of spelling and grammar mistakes and the list of ingredients were all over the place.
After getting the batch of muffins into the oven I actually took the time to re-write this recipe as the teenage Nicole’s display just made me cringe. Despite the chaos on the page, however, the recipe is solid.
