Cómo preparar Southern Sweet Potato Pound Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease and flour a 10-cup tube or bundt pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer.
  4. Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, mash 1 ½ cups cooked sweet potato until completely smooth. Add the mashed sweet potato to the creamed butter mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, mixing on low speed or with a wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 cup chopped pecans, and ½ cup shredded coconut (optional).
  8. Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
