Posted on October 20, 2011 by The Southern Lady
This bread is great for breakfast, a snack or just about anytime! Filled with raisins and nuts, too.
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup applesauce
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/4 cup oil (I used Canola)
- 1 cup sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed
- 1 cup nuts (I used walnuts, could use pecans)
- 1 cup raisins
Cook one large sweet potato in boiling water, then put in cold water to cool, peel and mash. (You can use 1 cup canned sweet potatoes mashed). In a large bowl mix mashed sweet potatoes, oil, eggs, milk, brown sugar, white sugar and applesauce with spoon. Add flour, baking powder, spices, salt and continue mixing. Stir in nuts and walnuts and mix till all ingredients are wet. Pour into a greased or sprayed 9 x 5 x 3 bread pan. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 45 minutes. Cool for 15 minutes before removing from pan.
This makes a large loaf of bread. I made a large loaf and a very small loaf for a friend when I made this. Enjoy!
