Candied Yam Bread (Using Leftovers) image

The solution to those yummy leftover candied yams! I don't measure when I make candied yams so sometimes the leftovers have more liquid. If there is some liquid in the candied yams, I use that in place of some of the milk, making sure I get 1/2 cup of total liquid. If the liquid drained from the candied yams looks particularly buttery, I use it in place of some of the butter, making sure to get 1/2 cup total for the fat measurement. If there isn't much liquid I just use the measurements stated in the recipe. This makes a yummy bread!

Overall, I thought this bread was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I found this bread to be a bit dry. I think it would be better with a little more moisture, such as adding a cup of applesauce.

This bread is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe. I would recommend using less sugar next time.

This bread was a bit too dense for my liking. I think it would be better with a lighter texture, such as using a different type of flour or adding some baking powder.
