Ingredients

1 cup sweet potato puree
1 + ½ cups whole wheat flour

½ cup walnuts finely chopped

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or white vinegar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt.

Fold in the finely chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
½ cup walnuts
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Pour the batter into a parchment-lined 9×5-inch loaf pan and sprinkle with extra chopped walnuts, if desired. Bake for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack and cool completely before slicing.

Store the cooled loaf in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
