Glazed Sweet Potato Bread 🍂🍞
Prep: 25 min + cooling
Bake: 1 hr
Serves: 12
Ingredients:
Nonstick cooking spray
2 medium sweet potatoes or yams, peeled & quartered
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg + extra for garnish
½ tsp kosher salt
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks), softened
3 large eggs
1 cup powdered sugar
1 Tbsp whole milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
1️⃣ Prep & mash: Preheat oven to 350°F and spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. In a medium saucepot, boil sweet potatoes in salted water for about 15 minutes, until fork-tender. Drain and mash until smooth; let cool completely. (Makes about 2 cups.)
2️⃣ Mix & bake: In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a large bowl, beat sugar and butter for 2 minutes until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mashed sweet potatoes. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until smooth. Spread batter into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
3️⃣ Glaze & cool: Cool the loaf in the pan for 30 minutes, then transfer to a rack. In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over the loaf and sprinkle with nutmeg. ✨ Cool completely before slicing.
4️⃣ Slice & serve: Cut into 12 cozy slices — perfect with coffee or tea. ☕🍞
