For an extra layer of flavor and texture, fold in 1 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts into the batter before baking. If you don't have fresh sweet potatoes, you can substitute with 2 cups of canned sweet potato puree. Be sure to drain any excess liquid. To prevent the top of the bread from browning too quickly, tent it loosely with foil during the last 20-30 minutes of baking. This bread tastes even better the next day, after the flavors have had a chance to meld together.

Jul 24, 2024The spice blend is spot on. Not too overpowering, just right. This is my new go-to sweet potato bread recipe.
