Maple Sweet Potato Bread
Yet another sweet potato recipe over here but this time in magical, fluffy bread form. Nothing makes me happier than a thick slice of warm bread but adding the flavors of maple + sweet potato was truly a dream! Gluten free, paleo, simple to make- you’ll want to eat this maple sweet potato bread for every meal!
Why I Love Sweet Potatoes:
I love to bake with sweet potatoes ( I have about 50 sweet potato recipes on my blog…) because they are so versatile. Whenever you have some extras sitting around the kitchen, there’s so many options. Plus they’re really inexpensive making the recipe more affordable. Also they’re packed with vitamins and nutrients.
I have a problem of eating too many sweet potatoes, the palms of my hands sometimes turn orange because of all the beta carotene in them haha. That’s the only downside of being sweet potato obsessed. If you look at Eli’s hands compared to mine, it looks like I had a bad turn at putting on self tanner. Carrots can also do this to you too. It’s not really a bad thing, just a funny thing that can happen.
Topping Ideas:
The only point of making a bread is for the toppings, right? The star of the show is always what you choose to top it with! I went with grass fed butter here but the options are limitless. You could: add some nut butter, add some banana, honey, warmed fruit- blueberries would be delicious, or some cinnamon and coconut sugar. I used some leftovers from this bread with a caramelized bananas- absolutely amazing!
Baking Tips:
Anyone else hate when they pour batter into a pan lined with parchment paper and it folds up all weird? Then your bread ends up a weird shape or you’re struggling to smooth it back out. I like to clip the parchment paper to the sides of the pan, pour the batter in, smooth the batter out, and then remove the clips before baking. It makes the process way smoother and an easier way to do things!
