HASSELBACK SWEET POTATO WITH PECAN STREUSEL
Sweet potatoes come in different colors, from white to yellow to orange to orange-red. The darker the inside, the sweeter it is. I chose white because I was adding maple syrup and brown sugar, but any sweet potato will do.

Tips:
- Use the best sweet potatoes for baking: Choose sweet potatoes with bright orange flesh, as they are the sweetest and have the best flavor. Avoid potatoes that are green or have dark spots, as these may be bitter or have an off-flavor.
- Don't overcook the sweet potatoes: Overcooked sweet potatoes will be mushy and lose their flavor. To prevent this, prick the potatoes with a fork and microwave them for 5-7 minutes per potato, or until they are tender but still firm.
- Use a quality streusel topping: The streusel topping is what gives this bread its signature sweet, crunchy texture. Make sure to use a recipe that uses real butter, sugar, and flour, and avoid using pre-packaged streusel mixes, which can be bland and lack flavor.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help the bread to hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling. To speed up the cooling process, you can place the bread in the refrigerator or freezer for a few minutes before slicing.
Conclusion:
Sweet potato streusel bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. It is moist and flavorful, with a sweet, crunchy streusel topping. This bread is also a good source of fiber and vitamins, making it a healthy choice for your family. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect loaf of sweet potato streusel bread that everyone will love. Enjoy!
