Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, vegetable oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth and well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until everything is combined. Be careful not to overmix.
-
If desired, fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts for an added crunch and nutty flavor.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the loaf cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Dust the cooled Sweet Potato Loaf Cake with powdered sugar for a touch of sweetness and a beautiful presentation.
