Keys: Breads Rolls Sweet Potatoes Tubers Root Vegetable Cold Warm
Yield: 3
Ingredients:
4 cup All-purpose flour
1 tbl Baking powder
2 tsp Baking soda
1 1/2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Ground cinnamon
1 tsp Freshly-grated nutmeg
1/2 tsp Ground cloves
1 cup Butter or margarine softened at
room temperature
1 lb Light brown sugar - (2 1/2 cups)
2 cup Orange-fleshed precooked yams pureed, or
thoroughly mashed
1 cup Apple cider
4 x Eggs beaten to a froth
1 1/2 cup Chopped walnuts
2 cup Dark raisins
Method:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease three 9- by 5- by 3-inch loaf pans;
set aside until needed.
Into a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda,
salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves; set aside. In a second large bowl,
cream butter and brown sugar together until light and well blended. Add
pureed yams, cider, and eggs. Stir until smooth and thoroughly blended.
About 1 cup at a time, add the flour mixture to the yam mixture,
stirring well after each addition. Don't beat this batter. Fold in nuts
and raisins. Spoon into prepared pans.
Bake until medium golden brown on top, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Check
doneness with a toothpick: Insert into the center of one loaf; if it
comes out clean the loaves are done. remove loaves from oven and let
stand about 10 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack to cool. Serve warm
or cold.
this recipe yields 3 loaves of bread.
Comments: This quick sweet bread made with richly colored,
orange-fleshed yam tastes almost like cake.
