Place the flour in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the sugar, allspice, roasted walnut pieces and grated sweet potato flesh.

Add the eggs, butter and milk and mix well to form a thick batter consistency, taking care not to overbeat.

Divide the mixture equally between the muffin cases, they will look quite full and place on the middle shelf in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until risen, golden brown and firm to the touch.

Allow to almost cool on a wire rack. Serve warm with butter and drizzle with maple syrup.
