Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Sweet potatoes (mashed)
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Dulce de leche
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans (optional)
- 1 to taste Whipped cream (for topping)
Instructions
Lightly grease the inside of a crockpot with nonstick cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, melted butter, eggs, dulce de leche, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chopped pecans (if using) for added texture and flavor.
Pour the batter into the prepared crockpot and spread it into an even layer with a spatula.
Place the lid on the crockpot and cook on high for 2.5-3 hours, or until the cake is set in the center and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Check the cake halfway through cooking to ensure it is not overcooking, and rotate the insert if necessary to ensure even baking.
Once done, carefully remove the crockpot insert and let the cake cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream on top or drizzle extra dulce de leche for added decadence.
