Total Time: 55 mins
Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 1 Loaf
Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 bottle (12 oz) vegan beer
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of mashed sweet potatoes and 1/2 cup of maple syrup. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Slowly pour in the 12 oz bottle of vegan beer into the sweet potato and maple mixture. Stir gently to combine, ensuring that the beer is incorporated without overmixing.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Make sure there are no lumps in the dry ingredients.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Ensure the batter is evenly distributed.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice the bread once it has cooled down, and serve it as is or with a spread of your choice. Enjoy your Sweet Potato Maple Vegan Beer Bread!
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Ensure your sweet potatoes and other ingredients are at room temperature for better mixing and consistent texture.
- Don't Overmix: When combining wet and dry ingredients, fold gently. Overmixing can lead to a tough, dense bread.
- Beer Selection: Choose a vegan beer with a flavor profile you enjoy. Lighter beers will give a more subtle taste, while darker beers can add depth and complexity.
- Moisture Check: If your sweet potatoes seem dry, add a little extra maple syrup or beer to maintain the bread's moisture.
- Cooling is Crucial: Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to help it set and prevent crumbling.
- Storage Tip: Wrap the cooled bread in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container to keep it fresh for 3-4 days.
- Serving Suggestion: Toast a slice and spread with vegan butter or your favorite jam for an extra treat!
