This recipe was found on pinterest, under culinarycoutureblog.com. I am very pleased to report, this sweet potato bread turned out exceptionally well with the substitutions I made. Recipe here…
Ingredients:
1 and 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar ( I use coconut sugar)
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed ( I use 1/4 tsp liquid Stevia)
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 and 1/2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
2 large eggs ( I use 2 Tbs ground flax seed and 6 Tbs water…let stand a couple minutes to form an egg texture)
1/2 cup canola oil
1/4 cup buttermilk (I use 1/4 c almond milk with 1/4 tsp Apple Cider vinegar.)
pinch of vanilla powder (I use 1/4 tsp vanilla extract)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9×5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray, then line with parchment paper, and lightly spray again. (Alternately, you can just spray the pan with cooking spray or grease with vegetable oil)
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugars, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice. Set aside.
In another bowl, add mashed potatoes, eggs, oil, buttermilk, and vanilla, and stir together until combined. Pour into flour mixture and stir until no streaks of flour remain and batter is smooth. Do not overmix.
Pour batter into prepared loaf pan, and smooth out the top with a spoon or spatula. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
*Note: Start checking for doneness after about an hour, as oven temperatures may vary.
For the Cream on top.
1) 8oz carton heavy whipping cream
2) Four drops liquid Stevia
3) 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
Put glass bowl and beaters in the freezer while making bread.
While whipping cream, add Stevia and Vanilla to taste.
