How to cook Sweet Potato Pound Cake
Sweet potato cake recipe INGREDIENTS
• 1 cup butter, softened
• 2 cups white sugar
• 2 cups cooked and mashed sweet potatoes
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 eggs
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
•
• 1 cup sifted confectioners' sugar
• 5 teaspoons orange juice
• 2 tablespoons grated orange zest
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour
a 10 inch tube pan. Sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon,
baking soda, nutmeg and salt. Set aside.
2. In large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add mashed sweet potatoes and vanilla. Beat until well blended. Add
eggs, one at a time (the batter will look curdled). Add flour mixture
to potato mixture. Beat on low until combined.
3. Pour batter into 10 inch tube pan. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees
C) for about 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted
into cake comes out clean. Cool cake for 20 minutes in the pan, then
invert onto serving plate.
4. To make the glaze: in a small bowl, combine confectioners sugar
with 3 to 5 teaspoons orange juice to achieve drizzling consistency.
Spoon over warm cake and sprinkle with orange zest if desired.
