I reduced sugar to 2 c., used just 1/2 c. of oil, and added 1/2 c. ground flaxseed instead. I was out of allspice, so I used 1/2 tsp. ginger and 1/2 tsp. black pepper. Yummy--my whole family loved it!

This recipe was an excellent foundation for a sugar free version. Instead of the 3 cups of sugar I used 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup, and a little less than 1/2 teaspoon pure Stevie extract powder (we prefer Kal brand with no filler). I also prefer them as muffins. This recipe also works great with wheatfree flour such as Pamela's gluten-free bread mix and flour blend.

I had some dribs and drags left over in my fridge and went searching for a recipe to use them and discovered this TREASURE. So moist and flavorful. I shared a loaf with family members, and this gorgeous bread was loved and appreciated by all. Like other reviewers, I reduced the sugar to 2 cups (3 definitely would have been way too much!), and used 1/2 cup vegetable oil and 1/2 cup applesauce. This recipe is a KEEPER! Thank you for sharing.

I did as suggested and used the juice from the canned sweet potatoe, good idea! I also added 1/4 t ground clove. :) The bread burned a little before it was done. Next time I will bake @ 375.

I am finding that I make this bread all the time. I always cut the sugar in half to make it not so terribly unhealthy, and I also substitute in half whole wheat flour to make it a little more hearty. In a pinch I once substituted freshly squeezed grapefruit juice for the orange juice. Always comes out perfect and super yummy! A huge hit with my family and friends! Thanks! :)

This made enough batter for two 9x5 loaf pans. It baked nicely in 65 mins. I used the whole amount of sugar and we found it perfectly sweet, and it's well spiced for us too. Very moist, dense and all around really good. Thx.

I usually try to make recipes exactly as written the first time, but I used only 1 1/2 C sugar for this one. Since I was modifying, I used applesauce in lieu of oil as well. It was perfect and I'm glad I didn't use the full amount of sugar, I could even see cutting back to 1C. I think it would be great with whole wheat flour as well and will try that next time. The blend of spices is just perfect an not too strong even for my young kids.

I just made this and it is tasty. I love sweet potatoes and was excited to try something new with them. I took the advice of a couple of other people who reviewed this recipe and used apple sauce instead of oil, and cut the sugar from 3C to 2C. I sprinkled 1/2 C of this sugar on top as someone had suggested. It was plenty sweet. Next time I may cut the amount of nutmeg as I found it a bit strong. I made this recipe gluten free by substituting my own flour mix and it turned out great (some recipes don't turn out when you make them gluten free). Gluten Free Flour: 1C brown rice flour 1-1/4 C white rice flour 1/4C potato starch 2/3C tapioca starch 3/4C sweet rice flour 1/3C corn starch 2 tsp guar gum You can find these ingredients at bulk food or health food stores.

We don't like sweet potatoes, but had some and they must be used. This was fabulous. Everyone loved....very similar to pumpkin bread.
