Ingredients:
2 packages dry yeast |
1/2 cup warm water (105° to 115°) |
7 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar |
1 tablespoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/8 teaspoon white pepper |
1 cup warm water (105° to 115°), divided |
2 cups cooked, mashed sweet potatoes |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water in large mixing bowl, and set aside.
2. Combine flour, brown sugar, salt, and spices. Add 1/2 cup flour mixture to yeast mixture, stirring well. Gradually add an additional 1/2 cup flour mixture and 1/4 cup warm water to yeast mixture; stir well. Repeat procedure with warm water and 5 cups flour mixture, reserving remaining flour mixture. Stir in sweet potatoes and butter (dough will be sticky.)
3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead, adding reserved 1 cup flour mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time. Knead for 10 to 15 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic.
4. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover, and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, for 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.
5. Punch dough down, and divide in half; shape each into a loaf. Place in two well-greased 9- x 5- x 3-inch loaf pans. Cover, and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, for 30 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Bake at 425° for 30 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when tapped.
