Muffin Tin Monday- A Breakfast Turkey
I decided to serve a turkey for dinner last week. It was such fun to put together and so simple. The turkey has sausage and bacon feathers along with sausage feet. His body is made of pumpkin spice pancakes. He has an apple and grape eye and a cantaloupe beak.
We had a stack of pancakes that didn’t end up on the platter but did end up in our bellies.
JDaniel had a muffin tin filled with leftover turkey parts for lunch the next day. He did request cheese be added to the tin. Cheese is his favorite food right now. He asks for it at every meal. I also added scrambled eggs to the tin and biscuits.

Muffin Tin Monday- Thanksgiving with Sweet Potato Casserole and More
List of Ingredients
2 tablespoon cold butter
Instructions:
- Rub a little olive oil on the skin of each sweet potato and bake them in a preheated 400 degree oven for 60 to 70 minutes or until they are tender. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, scrape out the insides and use an electric mixer on high speed to beat the potatoes until they are mashed.
- Add 3/4 cup brown sugar, heavy cream, melted butter, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, allspice and cloves into the sweet potatoes and mix well with the beater until all the ingredients are incorporated. Pour this mixture into an 8×8-inch baking dish.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Make the oatmeal streusel by grinding the rolled oats to a fine flour using a food processor. Using a blender will also work.
- Combine the oat flour with 2 tablespoons brown sugar, all-purpose flour, and 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl. Cut the cold butter or butter replacement into the dry mixture using a pastry knife or a fork. You should have a crumbly mixture with pea-size bits. Sprinkle this oatmeal streusel over the sweet potato mixture and pop it into the oven for 70 to 80 minutes or until the top begins to brown slightly.
- When you remove the casserole from the oven immediately spread the marshmallows over the top. Let this sit for about 10 minutes. The heat from the casserole will melt the marshmallows, and then it’s ready to serve.
