Sweet Potato Bread with Cinnamon-Rum-Orange Glaze




This is my first baking with Sweet Melissa Sundays! This recipe was chosen by Loreli of Mermaid Sweets so be sure to check out her blog for the recipe!

This was good, super??? I don't know. My glaze ended up being way thicker because I got distracted as it was reducing (kids!) ..so it's more of a sticky toffee glaze vs a nice thin glaze. Oh and I also only had like 5 pecans (that I dug out of a mixed nuts jar) vs a 1/2cup so the rest got subbed in with roasted cashews. Eh a little this a little that...it all bakes up in the end!

I'll probably keep this recipe in that "oh why not" section of my cookbook! Next Sunday's SMS selection is Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler Pie by Tracey’s Culinary Adventure...stay tuned for more recipes coming this week! I'm for sure feeling a peanut butter cookie in there!

This was my first time baking with SMS as well! I liked this recipe, but am with you, I likely won't make it again. Looking forward to making the Strawberry Rhubarb Cobbler Pie though! Classic spring flavors, especially here in Minnesota.
