May 5, 2021

1 cup pre-cooked and cooled mashed sweet potato

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup maple syrup

1/2 cup milk

2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

1 cup roughly chopped pecans

1/4 cup melted butter

2 cups self-raising flour

Cinnamon Sugar Topping

1 tbsp caster sugar

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1Preheat oven to 180°C and grease and line a loaf tin (I’ve used a 21cm x 11cm loaf tin).

2In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients except flour and topping ingredients. Mix until well combined.

3Sift flour into mixing bowl and gently fold flour into mixture until just combined.

4Pour into loaf tin.

5Combine caster sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle on top of loaf.

6Place into preheated oven and cook for 55-60 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

7Allow to cool before slicing.
