Deb's Famous Sweet Potato Bread image

Thanks to the nutmeg and cinnamon, baking this sweet potato bread evokes the aromas of fall. It's tender and moist with the perfect balance of sugar and spices. Sweet potatoes not only add a unique flavor, but they also prevent the bread from being dry. This is the perfect quick bread to use leftover mashed sweet potatoes.

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cup(s) self-rising flour
2 teaspoon(s) nutmeg
2 teaspoon(s) cinnamon
2 cup(s) sugar
4 - eggs
1 cup(s) vegetable oil
4 tablespoon(s) whole milk
2 cup(s) mashed sweet potatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Whisk together dry ingredients.
  • Whisk eggs in a separate bowl.
  • In a large mixing bowl or using a large bowl with a stand-up mixer, mix together all ingredients thoroughly 5 minutes. Scrape sides regularly with a rubber spatula to ensure a proper mix.
  • Scoop mixture into small to medium loaf pans, filling each pan 2/3 full. I use a decorative pan of my Mom's that has 4 small loaf pans in one pan.
  • Bake at 350° 45-60 minutes depending on your pan size and oven. Use the toothpick test to judge, but don't overcook. You want this bread to be moist.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
  • Turn out onto cooling racks. Wrap with Saran or another cling wrap to keep fresh.
