Sweet Potato Bread (Pain Patate) image

This bread is flavorful and very moist. As Peggy said, this could be called a pudding. I used the coconut milk/evaporated milk combination which I think added to the flavors. The spices are spot on. This is a really enjoyable dessert!

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 12

9 c grated dry-flesh sweet potatoes (white sweet potato) (about 6 lbs of potatoes)
1 1/2 c whole milk
2 can(s) 12 oz evaporated milk (3 cups) or 1 12 oz. can evaporated milk plus 1/3 cup fresh coconut milk
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1 c light brown sugar
1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract
1 c raisins
3 Tbsp mild unsulphured molases
1 well-ripened banana, finely mashed (optional)
3 Tbsp margarine

Steps:

  • 1. Generously grease a 9-x5-inch loaf pan and set aside
  • 2. In a large pan, mix grated potatoes with whole milk and evaporated milk. Mix in cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt, then bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook uncovered for 15-20 minutes, scraping bottom of the pan often to prevent potatoes from sticking.
  • 3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • 4. Add sugar, vanilla, raisins, molasses, banana (if using), and margarine to potato mixture. Continue to cook uncovered over medium heat for about 5 additional minutes, scraping bottom of the pan almost constantly. Mixture should be very thick.
  • 5. Pour in the prepared pan. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, and place it in large baking dish. Put hot water in the baking dish halfway to the top of the pan and bake in the middle of the preheated oven for 3 three hours.
  • 6. Check water level every 30 minutes, and add hot water to the baking dish when necessary. Cool, loosely covered, in the pan at room temperature.
  • 7. Refrigerate to cool completely. To unmold, gently shake the pan to loosen the desert, and overturn onto a serving dish.
  • 8. *Pain Patate can be made in a 6 cup pudding mold or individually in ramekins.*

I used maple syrup instead of honey in my bread. It gave it a delicious flavor.
