Yield Makes 6 portions, makes 1 small loaf

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 pound sweet potatoes (about 1 large potato)
1/4 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
3/4 cup vegetable oil, such as canola
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups dark-brown sugar
1 3/4 cups cake flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Butter, for greasing loaf pan
3 tablespoons store-bought caramel sauce or dulce de leche
1/4 teaspoon flaked sea salt, such as Maldon, for sprinkling
1 1/2 teaspoons Aleppo pepper flakes
1/4 cup chopped toasted pecans
Special equipment:
9" x 5" loaf pan

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F minutes. Butter a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Pierce sweet potato several times with a fork and place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil. Bake until soft and cooked through, 50 to 60 minutes. Scoop out flesh into a blender or food processor; discard skin. Add milk and purée until smooth. Scrape the potato mixture into a medium bowl and return 1 1/3 cups of the mixture to the blender. Add eggs, oil, vanilla, and dark brown sugar and purée until smooth. Scrape into a large bowl.
  • Lower the oven to 325°F. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in three batches to avoid overworking the flour. Make sure batter is fully mixed.
  • Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake in oven, rotating once, until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, 60 to 75 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack for 2 hours.
  • Run the dull side of a bread knife along the inner edges of the loaf pan. Unmold the bread and drizzle with caramel. Sprinkle with sea salt, Aleppo pepper, and pecans before serving.

Tips:

- Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and smooth, without any blemishes or bruises. - Use a food processor or blender to puree the sweet potatoes until they are very smooth. This will help to ensure that the bread is light and fluffy. - If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can mash the sweet potatoes by hand. Just be sure to mash them until they are very smooth. - Add the spices and seasonings to the sweet potato puree to taste. You can use more or less of each spice, depending on your personal preference. - Be sure to grease the loaf pan before baking the bread. This will help to prevent the bread from sticking to the pan. - Bake the bread at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. - Let the bread cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
