Easy and tasty, this bread is sure to please. You can make it more sweet and bake it on the Sweet Bread cycle, or omit the molasses and honey and bake on a Normal Bread cycle. Delicious either way!

Type: Bread
Serve With: Softened butter or with a Holiday feast
Prep Time: 7 min
Cook Time: 2 hr, 30 min
Yield: 1 loaf

Ingredients:

• 1 small sweet potato — Mashed; either boiled, baked or roasted first
• 1 1/2 tsp bread machine yeast — I prefer Fleischmann’s brand
• 1 1/4 cups water — Lukewarm
• 1 1/2 tbsp molasses
• 1/2 tbsp honey
• 1/4 cup yellow corn meal
• 2 tbsp butter — Softened
• 1 1/2 tbsp heavy cream
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
• 3 cups bread flour — I prefer Robin Hood brand
• 1/2–3/4 cup golden raisins — Optional

Instructions:
1. Combine all ingredients in the bread machine reservoir, except raisins.

2. Turn on the machine to the Sweet bread cycle, if you have one.

* Tip: It takes 3 hr, 40 min for my machine to bake this type of bread.

* Tip: If dough looks too wet, add more flour 1 tbsp at a time; if dough looks too dry, add more water 1 tsp at a time.

3. After first kneading is over, add the raisins, so that they are not torn apart during the first kneading.

4. When bread is finished baking, open lid of the bread machine to let it cool slowly for about 10 min.

5. Take bread out of baking pan, and wait another 5 min.

6. Enjoy!

I hope this bread either brings back memories of your childhood, or makes new ones for years and generations to come!
