Sweet Potato Bread (100% whole wheat, healthier)

It’s been ages since I last posted a dessert recipe. Where have I been?  sweet potato bread healthy (2)

Long story! Maybe another day. sweet potato bread healthy (19)

Now let’s talk about this Sweet Potato Bread. sweet potato bread healthy (1)

My mom loves baked goods like this… healthy, moist and delicious whole wheat Sweet Potato Bread made with just 2 tbsp of coconut oil. sweet potato bread healthy (11)

I compensated with Greek Yogurt and of course, sweet potato, for the lack of fat in this bread. I also toned down the sugar in this recipe since the sweet potatoes are already quite sweet. sweet potato bread healthy (12)

I was really happy with the results because all my family members and friends loved this bread and trust me when I say they are a tough crowd to please.  sweet potato bread healthy (15)

Hope you guys like it as much as we all did. sweet potato bread healthy (17)

    Hi, for some reason I can’t find the recipe on this page, only the pictures. I was wondering if this is some sort of glitch

"Just when you think you know love, someone little "Just when you think you know love, someone little comes along to remind you just how big it really is." - Unknown⁠ ⁠ How can I love someone this tiny so much? He tests my patience every day, but also brings me so much joy! ⁠ ⁠ For all you moms who said, “I have no time”, I finally get it. Now, I can’t even spare 5 minutes to shower. Yes, Nisha - Welcome to the Club! I can’t tell you how many people sent me this EXACT message 😂.⁠ ⁠ Before I became a mom, the idea of changing diapers and spit-up grossed me out. Now, no biggie. I can’t even count on one hand how many times I’ve put my baby to sleep and I get so excited to have some “me time”. To my disappointment, he wakes up 1/2 hour later and I have to start the process all over again… is he burped, is he wet, is he hungry? The days are long! ⁠ Despite the hardships of motherhood, one of the greatest joys has been watching and holding my baby while he sleeps, and knowing I provide comfort to him like no other. I’m sure he will get used to it and I’ll probably regret it later on, but for now, I am just soaking up these precious moments while he’s still little and innocent. ☺️⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #motherhood #krishandnish #babyhoneywhatscooking #loveofmylife #mamasboy #3weekspostpartum
