Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup sweet potato mashed
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 2 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 ½ cups flour
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp Coriander
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp cloves
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 350F and prepare a 1 lb loaf pan with cooking spray and baking parchment.
  2. In a large bowl or jug, whisk together the sweet potato, brown sugar, oil, sour cream, eggs and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.
  3. In another large bowl, whisk together the flour, spices and salt. Then whisk the wet mixture into the dry until you have a just combined batter.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared tin, levelling the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the loaf comes out clean.
  5. Leave to cool in the tin on a wire rack. 

Notes

  • Don't worry about baking it too long! This Easy Sweet Potato Bread is really difficult to dry out, but can take a while to bake depending on the temperature of your oven. Test it with the tip of a sharp knife or a wooden toothpick before taking it out, if it comes out with some batter still clinging to the toothpick, bake it for a further 5 minutes.
  • Do not over-mix. To keep a light, moist crumb you want to stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients only until just combined, no more.
  • It freezes well. Undecorated, you can easily freeze a well wrapped loaf for up to 1 month.
  • In a pinch, use Greek yogurt: Sour cream will provide a better texture, but if you find yourself without and you still want to make this Sweet Potato Bread full fat plain Greek yogurt will work instead.
  • Icing and glazes: If you want to decorate this Sweet Potato Bread, use the Cream Cheese Frosting from my Pumpkin Bread, or the Maple Glaze from my Pumpkin Scones.
  • Leftovers and storage: Well wrapped, this loaf should keep for 3-4 days on the countertop.
