Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet Potato Pecan Bread.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and generously greasing a 9x5-inch loaf pan to ensure your bread releases effortlessly.
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together the white sugar and vegetable oil until they form a smooth, harmonious mixture.
Step 3
Next, crack in the eggs and continue to beat the mixture until everything is beautifully combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt, creating a fragrant dry blend.
Step 5
Gradually introduce this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with splashes of water, and stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Now, fold in the star of the show: the cooked and mashed sweet potatoes, along with the chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 7
Pour this delightful mixture into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even bake.
Step 8
Place the pan in the preheated oven and let it work its magic for about an hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center emerges clean.
Step 9
Once baked to perfection, allow the bread to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack, where it can cool completely and fill your kitchen with its irresistible aroma.
Step 10
Enjoy the journey of flavors in every slice!.
