Sweet potato and coconut oat bread
Sweet potatoes are just AMAZING! I like to substitute them for ordinary potatoes because they are basically a bomb of sweet goodness and the health benefits of sweet potatoes are far superior! I also substitute them wherever else I can, breads and cakes alike!
Due to their deliciously sweet taste you can pair them with ingredients like coconut to give a lovely sweet twist to any bread.
WARNING This bread is not for the faint hearted it's a deliciously moist and heavier texture so if you are a "light and fluffy" bread lover try one of my other bread recipes....
Ingredients:
500g cooked, peeled and mashed sweet potato
150ml almond milk
200ml coconut milk
150g wholewheat flour
150g oats
3 teaspoons baking soda
2 tablespoons organic honey
a pinch of turmeric
salt and pepper to taste
50g dried crushed coconut
Place all the ingredients except the almond and coconut milk in a mixing bowl and mash together with a fork until evenly distributed. The sweet potato should be completely mashed without any lumps.
Add the almond and coconut milk and continue mashing until you have formed an even dough. Place in a baking tin and cook for 90 minutes on medium heat until a knife comes out dry and the crust is nice and crunchy.
Enjoy with my homemade pumpkin nut butter!
