Moist delicious way to use up excess sweet potatoes or yams after the holidays. This is so delicious that it disappeared within minutes. Wrap in aluminum foil to keep the moisture in. Ideally, refrigerate the loaves for 2 hours or more before serving; or can be frozen and served later. Just remove from freezer and allow to thaw while still covered at room temperature for about 4 hours before serving.

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup butter, softened
⅔ cup white sugar
⅔ cup packed brown sugar
2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
4 eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cloves
2 cups baking mix (such as Bisquick ®)
2 tablespoons baking mix (such as Bisquick ®)
1 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans.
  • Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a bowl until smooth. Stir in sweet potatoes, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves until well blended.

This bread was great! Next time, I'll add some chopped pecans to the batter.

The bread was good, but I found it to be a little too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe by 1/4 cup. Other than that, it was a great recipe and I would definitely make it again.

I've made this bread several times, and I always experiment with different variations. I've added chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and even grated zucchini. It always turns out great! This is a really versatile recipe.

I really enjoyed this bread! It was easy to make and turned out perfectly. I would definitely recommend it to others. One tip: don't overmix the batter, or the bread will be tough.

I've made this bread a few times now and I love it! I usually don't have pecans on hand, so I substitute walnuts and they work just as well. The bread is always moist and flavorful, and it's a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes.
