Bread (Dessert) - Sweet Potato Bread

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

Bread (Dessert) - Sweet Potato Bread

Post by Chowhound »

SWPB.jpeg
1.5 cups sweet potato puree
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil (or coconut oil)
2 large eggs
1 3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Add the sweet potato puree, sugars, water, oil, and eggs to a large mixing bowl and mix with a hand mixer (or add to the bowl of a stand mixer and mix) until combined. To a different bowl, add the sifted flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon and mix. Add the dry ingredients into the bowl of the wet ingredients and use the mixer to combine. You can add the pecans now and mix them in or you can add them on top of the bread batter after you transfer it to the bread pan. Line a bread pan with parchment paper and add the bread batter to the pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick that is inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean.
