My husband doesn't usually like alternative breads. This one he actually asked for again the next day. The sweet potato keeps it moist and the color is beautiful. Slices thin and holds together without crumbling — the first flourless bread he has eaten more than one slice of.

Naturally orange and subtly sweet.

Needs a long bake. Mine was still wet in the middle at 45 min. 60 minutes at 180C worked.
