Sweet Potato Corn Bread

Ingredients:

Wet:
2 medium size sweet potatoes 
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sugar
4 tsp apple sauce
1 cup soy milk with 1 Tbs apple cider vinegar (regular vinegar works too) "vegan buttermilk"

Dry:
2 cups unbleached flour
1 cup corn meal
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg

Directions:

Oil two 9'' loaf pans and lightly dust with cornmeal
- preheat oven to 350
- With a fork poke holes in sweet potatoes and roast in their skin until very soft  (approx 1hr)  ( can be roasted the day before so they are ready to go!)
- Mix the 1Tbs of vinegar into the soy milk and let sit for about 5 mins...this creates vegan "buttermilk"
- Once the potatoes have cooled mash them until smooth in a large bowl and add all wet ingredients including "buttermilk"
- slowly add dry ingredients 
- stir until there are no more dry chunks 
- Pour into loaf pans...mixture should be quite thick...and bake for 25-35 min (until a test stick comes out clean)
- allow to cool before cutting
