Mix the ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, remaining sugar, salt, sweet potato puree and eggs. Add the active yeast, melted butter and remaining milk. If you like, you can also add a spoonful of honey for a sweeter taste.

Knead: Knead all the ingredients well until you get a soft and elastic dough. If necessary, add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.

Let it rise: Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in volume.

Shape the bread: Once it has risen, deflate the dough slightly and shape the bread into the shape you prefer (you can use a loaf pan or make loaves).

Second rising: Cover the bread and let it rise for another 30-45 minutes.

Baking: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the bread is cooked (you can test with a toothpick to be sure).

Serve: Let cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

This bread is great for breakfast and snacks, or as an accompaniment to soups or meat dishes.
