Brown Butter Sweet Potato Bread
I have another great fall recipe for you today! This brown butter sweet potato bread is simply amazing! Full of a bold sweet potato flavor, spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves) and nutty brown butter, I am certain it will become a fall favorite in your kitchen soon. I have made it three times already and this recipe makes 6 mini loaves for gifting so I was able to bring some over to some friends.
You know how I love me some brown butter. It just makes EVERYTHING it is added to more flavorful. I toss my pasta in brown butter (thanks Kayle), add brown butter to my favorite chocolate chip cookies and I love adding it to quick bread like this or muffins. If you have yet to get on that bandwagon, I urge you to. It is more delicious than the kale craze if you ask me.
The next awesome thing about this recipe is the moistness from sweet potatoes. I love baking with sweet potatoes but they are so underused in the fall with pumpkin and apples overshadowing everything else. Like pears!! I need to make a pear recipe soon too. But back to sweet potatoes, how can you not love it in baked goods? It adds a great flavor and always makes breads that are moist and crumbly. And don’t even get me started on how awesome sweet potato pie is!
For just a few days, take a break from pumpkin and use some sweet potatoes to make this browned butter sweet potato bread. It’s divine.

This bread looks amazing, Zainab! I’ve never had a sweet potato version before. I’m loving the browned butter in here, too!
Oh you will love it. I know you love your pumpkin but sweet potato will be a great change.
This sounds incredible, Zainab! I haven’t made sweet potato bread in years…like YEARS! In fact, I don’t even know what happened to my old recipe. Good thing you posted this one…because it’s about to be raining sweet potato bread in my kitchen. Yum! 🙂
Hhahah raining sweet potatoes!!! It’s a good one to rain 🙂
i always forget about baking with sweet potatoes in the fall…but i bought some this week so i could do just that! this bread sounds yummy 🙂

OMG, you had me at brown butter!!! Seriously, Zainab, this bread looks all sorts of AMAZING! I’ve never had sweet potato bread before, so clearly I need to get on this IMMEDIATELY! Gimme gimme! Cheers!
I know you LOVE browned butter too!!
Three times?! You can’t give a higher rec as a blogger than by using the same recipe several times–especially a blogger as busy as you are, lady! Bookmarking this one for the beautiful autumn and its cozy recipes!
I know!! I rarely make anything more than once and loved this bread that much.
I LOVE the addition of brown butter to this easy quick bread! Sweet potatoes are one of my favourite ingredients and I bet their natural sweetness goes so well with warm, nutty, brown butter. This loaf is sure to become a morning tea favourite 🙂
The natural sweetness calls for less sugar and yes perfect with the brown butter!
That looks like a perfect snack for a cold day!
Agreed!!
This looks fantastic, Zainab! I’ve never had sweet potato bread before. The sweet potato is so neglected and I need to get on this recipe STAT! Pinned!
Thanks for the pin Rachelle.
I love sweet potatoes but have never tried baking with them! I have to try this next! This bread looks amazing, Z!
You should! It is so good.
Brown butter! I can only imagine what it does to a quick bread – yummm… This bread looks incredibly moist and most inviting. 🙂
