This recipe was great! I replaced the oil with applesauce...used 3/4 cup of raw unrefined sugar in place of the 1 1/2 white sugar...a mixture of flours including spelt, buckwheat, soy, almond, and tapioca (didn't sift them)...and chocolate chips instead of nuts. Also, I made muffins instead of the whole loaf. My family ate them up and are asking for more! May try canned pumpkin next time.

Oh, yum!! This is a fabulous recipe! My husband, who hates anything to do with sweet potatoes, even had to admit this was good. The only changes I made were as follows: (1) Use orange juice instead of water. (2) Add 1/2 cup dark raisins to the batter. (3) Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. This recipe's a definite keeper!!

Very tasty and moist! I modified this to make it a bit healthier and lower in calories. I used agave instead of sugar (ratio of .5 to 1, but could maybe use even less as it was sweet enough), I used whole wheat flour, and I exchanged the vegetable oil with 1/2 canola oil and 1/2 unsweetened applesauce. My sweet potato was also a little chunky (not completely smooth) after mashing, but it came out great! Would definitely make again.

I made mini-muffins for my 11 month old - she loved them!!! I omitted the pecans and were still great!

This is just excellent! Noone in my family likes sweet potatoes (except for me). But they all loved this bread. I did cut the sugar to 1 cup in the second batch, just to save some calories. Couldn't even tell the difference. Wonderful!

My husband who is a picky eater and isn't a fan of sweet potato likes the sweet potato bread. Now that's saying something! Although I would have to say, it is very similar to the pumpkin bread.

This sweet potato bread is divine! It's incredibly moist and has just the right sweetness! A staple for summer. I substituted applesauce + a little bit of melted smart balance for the oil... perfect!

This recipe deserves more than 5 stars! It is so simple to make, and yet tastes better than any bread you could buy in a bakery. I too used half white, half brown sugar as well as half oil, half applesauce. Also, apple juice instead of the water. Even my husband (who does NOT like sweet potatoes) LOVED IT!!!

I am struggling with my children eating vegetables so I was looking for a way to "sneak" them in. This is a delicious, great way! The only change I made was to substitute applesauce for the vegetable oil.

I usually make pumkin bread and hesitated trying this...but I had extra mashed sweet potatoes from another recipe so..... it turned out good....our kids gobbled it up as fast as pumpkin bread!

Very good!

Yum yum yum! I used half applesauce/half oil, half whole wheat flour, and sprinkled walnuts on top (easy to pick off for the no-nut-eaters). It was delicious and gobbled up by my kids. Best way to eat sweet potatoes that I've found yet!

This is the Best Bread recipe ever and the ONLY one that I use for banana bread... instead of potatoes change to banana and you will have perfect & delicious banana bread every time!!

This bread came out just fantastic. A local restaurant used to sell sweet potato bread that I just loved, and this recipe is near identical to it. I modified it slightly by substituting apple juice (in place of water) and apple sauce (in place of vegetable oil). This didn't give it an overly apple flavor at all, but it kept the bread moist for a week and gave it just a subtle undertone of apple. I also added raisins, instead of pecans. It was a hit with everyone who managed to grab a slice.

SO GOOD!!! Moist, good flavor, and easy to make!!!

I found I had run out of cinnamon when making this recipe, so I added pumpkin pie spice and a dash of vanilla (really not the equivelant of cinnamon) but this recipe came out absolutely delicious. My whole house smells wonderfully hours after the bread has been done. Thanks for sharing.
