Brent's Sweet Potato Bread

I chose to share THIS recipe FIRST because it was Brent's FAVORITE bread! I KNOW you'll LOVE it as much as we do!

The photo I chose to use for this recipe was one I found online that most resembles what the bread actually looks like. (The bread in this picture however is NOT Sweet Potato Bread) Those I found online didn't look NEARLY as scrumptious as this one does - and this is TRULY what it will look like! It's SOOOO YUMMY and the scent of your house while it bakes is UNBELIEVABLE!

Sweet Potato Bread

• 3 1/2 cups sugar


• 2 tsp Cinnamon


• 4 eggs


• 2 tsp. vanilla


• 3 1/2 cups flour


• 1 cup vegetable oil


• 1 tsp. salt


• 2 cups of cooked and mashed sweet potatoes (I almost ALWAYS cheat and used the canned ones)


• 1 cup of chopped nuts (if desired - I normally use 2 cups)
  
  Combine sugar, vanilla, oil, potatoes and eggs, mix well. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well and pour into greased 1 pound coffee cans or 4 loaf pans. Bake at 350 for 1 hour or when a toothpick comes out clean. The mixture nearly doubles in size, be careful not to get baking pans too full. : ) I usually only fill a little over halfway.
  
  (I always grease the inside of the baking pan and "dust" with flour BEFORE adding the mix - it is very likely to stick to the pan if you don't)
