• ½ tsp salt
• 2 tsp baking powder

• Fat for the mold

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 1 hour 15 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 45 minutes

Peel and dice the sweet potatoes, then boil in lightly salted water for about 10-15 minutes until soft. Drain in a colander. Preheat the oven to 180°C (top/bottom heat 160°C fan-assisted) and grease a 1-liter loaf pan. Sift the flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg into a bowl. In another bowl, mix the soft sweet potatoes, brown sugar, butter, and eggs thoroughly with a hand mixer. Add the flour mixture and raisins and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake the bread in the hot oven for about 60 to 75 minutes. Use a wooden skewer to test if it’s done. Let the pan cool on a wire rack for about 15 minutes, then carefully remove the bread and place it on the rack to cool. Tip: This sweet potato raisin bread tastes best served lukewarm with a little butter. It’s a definite hit for a hearty Sunday breakfast with the family.
