I'm not a big fan of sweet potato dishes, but this pone was really good. The combination of the sweet potatoes, spices, and nuts was perfect.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I also added some chopped walnuts to the batter, which gave it a nice crunch.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pone turned out dry and crumbly. I think I may have overmixed the batter.

This recipe is a keeper! The sweet potato pone turned out perfectly - moist, flavorful, and with a slightly crispy crust. I served it with butter and honey, and it was absolutely delicious.
