Cake
The sweet potato cake recipe
combines ingredients like butter, sugar, ground ginger, ground

The recipe is simple with just a few steps.
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 1
hour and 10 minutes
Ingredients:
2 1/4
cups flour
3
teaspoons baking powder
1
teaspoon baking soda
1/2
teaspoon salt
1
teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2
teaspoon ground ginger
3
(medium) sweet potatoes
1/2
cup white sugar
3/4
cup brown sugar
egg replacer (substitute for 3
eggs) 1/2
cup natural butter spread or regular butter
1/2
cup raisins (chopped)
- First, rinse sweet potatoes, peel, and cut into
small cubes. Place them into a deep pot, cover with water, and
bring to a boil for about 30 to 35 minutes or until tender.
-
When sweet potatoes are ready, drain and mash.
- Then, preheat oven to
350° F and then grease 2 (9 inch) round baking pans.
- Now, in a bowl, flour, baking powder, baking
soda, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, salt.
- In a separate large bowl, mix the mashed sweet
potatoes, brown sugar, white sugar, and chopped raisins.
- Next, add the egg substitute at a time to the mashed sweet
potatoes mixture and beat a little. Now, add the butter and mix.
- Add the flour mixture to the large bowl and mix
all the ingredients.
- Finally, place the cake mixture into greased,
round baking pans and bake for about 35 minutes. There is a trick to
know if the cake is ready: insert a knife in the center of the cake;
if it comes out clean, then it is ready. If not, leave it for a couple
of minutes and then check again until it comes out clean.
- Frost with your favorite icing.
