Sweet Potatoe Cake Recipe

 Sweet Potatoe Cake Recipe


1 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup white sugar
2/3 cup brown sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup cake flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/3 cups milk
1 medium sweet potato, peeled, cubed, boiled, and mashed.
1/3 cup maple syrup

Cream the butter and sugars in an electric mixer until light and fully combined. Add vanilla and eggs, one at a time, incorporating completely after each addition. Let egg and butter mixture blend until very light in color, about 4 minutes on medium/high speed.

In a separate bowl add the flours, baking powder, and salt and whisk to combine.

In a large measuring cup, measure the milk, add the mashed sweet potato and maple syrup and stir to combine.

When the butter mixture is light and fluffy, add 1/3 of the flour mixture and mix well. Add 1/2 of the liquid ingredients and stir. Repeat with remaining flour mixture and liquid mixture, making sure to end with the dry ingredients. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl when giving it a final mix.

Pour the batter evenly between two 9 inch round cake pans that you've buttered and floured. Tap the pans lightly on the counter to remove any air bubbles and bake in a 350 degree oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool cakes in their pans for 15 minutes, then turn out on to wire racks to cool completely.

When cakes are completely cool, frost with Cream Cheese Frosting, and decorate the sides with chopped walnuts.

3.5oz soft butter

2 tbs water

Once the caramel has reached a nice brown color, add the butter to the caramel one piece at a time as you swirl the pot to mix. 


Step 5

Peel and cut the bananas into approx one inch lengths. Arrange in the cake pan by placing the flattest part to the bottom directly on the butterscotch. Continue until fully covered.


Step 6

Pour in the cake batter on top of bananas. Flatten with a spatula and tap the pan several times quite vigously to remove any trapped air and send the batter to the bottom. Place in a preheated oven at 350°F  for 30 – 45 minutes or until the cake is cooked. Prick the cake in the centre using a skewer to be sure it’s cooked as different cake pans and ovens yield very different times.


Once cooked, leave to cool 30 minutes before un-moulding.
