Sweet Potato Bread & Pineapple Butter is a perfect addition to any potluck or brunch!
This is definitely the time to be digging out the sweet potato recipes! Just about every store has them this week on sale in preparation for Thanksgiving. This recipe is a good spin on pumpkin bread, and the pineapple butter gives it a special sweetness.
Sweet Potato Bread & Pineapple Butter Recipe:
The butter would be great used throughout the week on English muffins (on sale at Publix) or bagels. The pineapple is also on sale at Publix B1G1. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do! Slice a piece and enjoy it as a snack or for breakfast. We love this stuff.
