*(Makes 10-12 muffins)*

2 cups whole wheat or whole wheat pastry flour  
1/2 cup sugar  
1 tablespoon baking powder  
1/2 teaspoon baking soda  
1/2 teaspoon salt  
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon  
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg  
1-1/2 cups cooked, mashed yams  
1/2 cup water  
1/2 cup raisins

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

In a large bowl mix whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add yams, the water, and raisins; stir until just mixed.

Lightly coat a muffin pan with vegetable-oil spray. Fill cups to the top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top of a muffin bounces back when pressed lightly. Let stand for 1 to 2 minutes before removing from the pan. When cool, store in an airtight container.
