Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spicy Sweet Potato Loaf.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, take an 8x4-inch loaf pan and generously grease and flour it with a teaspoon of safflower oil, ensuring a non-stick surface for your delightful creation.
Step 3
In a spacious mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until they are just frothy.
Step 4
Next, introduce the pureed sweet potatoes and half a cup of safflower oil, blending on low speed until the mixture is harmoniously combined.
Step 5
Now, heat the almond milk until it’s steaming but not boiling, then whisk in the taro starch until it dissolves completely, creating a smooth and thick mixture.
Step 6
Gently fold this taro concoction into the sweet potato blend, ensuring everything is well integrated.
Step 7
Sweeten the deal by adding dark brown sugar, white sugar, and a splash of vanilla extract, continuing to mix until the batter is luxuriously smooth.
Step 8
In a separate bowl, combine whole wheat flour, glutinous rice flour, all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, ground allspice, ground cloves, and a pinch of salt.
Step 9
Gradually incorporate this dry mixture into the sweet potato batter, stirring until the texture is velvety and well blended.
Step 10
Pour the luscious batter into your prepared loaf pan, then slide it into the preheated oven.
Step 11
Allow it to bake for approximately one hour, or until the top springs back gently when pressed, signaling that it’s perfectly done.
Step 12
Once baked, let the bread cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 13
As you wait, the aroma wafting through your kitchen will be nothing short of heavenly, making the anticipation all the more delightful.
Step 14
Enjoy this sweet potato bread as a warm treat or a delicious snack throughout the day!.
