Sweet Potato Cake

Yesterday, I told you about the large batch of sweet potatoes that I cooked up in my slow cooker last week. Immediately after dinner I mashed the remaining sweet potatoes and made this sweet potato cake for our breakfast the next morning. It is super moist and ever so simple to make. And, I have two more containers full of pre-measured, mashed sweet potatoes in my freezer to make more cake in the future.

Sweet Potato Cake

¾ cup melted butter

1 ½ cups raw sugar (or white sugar)

3 eggs

½ cup milk

1 tsp. vanilla

2 cups mashed sweet potatoes

2 cups white whole wheat flour

1 Tbsp. baking powder

2 tsp. baking soda

¼ tsp. salt

2 tsp. cinnamon

Stir together melted butter, sugar, eggs, milk, vanilla, and sweet potatoes. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until combined. Pour into a greased 9X13 pan and bake at 350˚ for 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
