Ingredients
Cake
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups sweet potatoes cooked, peeled and mashed
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
Crumble Topping
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup butter softened
Maple Glaze
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 3 Tablespoons milk
- 3 Tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup pecans chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt; set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes and milk together, then mix in the beaten eggs and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir just until combined. Add the melted butter and fold in until fully incorporated.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
Crumble Topping
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon for the crumble topping. Cut in the 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter until the mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle the topping all over the cake batter in the baking dish and use a butter knife to swirl it into the cake batter just a little bit so some of the topping settles down into the cake and some is on top.
- Bake the cake at 350F for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Maple Glaze
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ingredients for the glaze. Pour the glaze over top of the cake while it is still warm.
- Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
