List of Ingredients

3 1/2 c. flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. cloves
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt

Recipe

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, salt, and allspice.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweet potato, eggs, sugar and oil by hand.

Add the sweet potato mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just moistened and a few white streaks remain. Fold in nuts and raisins.

Bake in two greased (9" x 5") loaf pans at 350ºF for 65-70 minutes, or until bread tests done. Cool in pans for 10 minutes before removing.

For best flavor, wrap in tin foil when completely cool and let sit overnight.
