Sweet Potato Crumb Cake

Time: 15 minutes prep, 105 minutes cook
Servings: 16
 

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Spray angel food cake pan (tube pan) with cooking spray.
  2. To Make Crumb Topping: Crush cereal. Stir all ingredients until crumbly. Set aside.
  3. To Make Cake: Crush cereal. Beat cereal, sweet potatoes, sugar and oil in large bowl on medium speed until well mixed; let stand 10 minutes. Add eggs and orange peel; beat 30 seconds.
  4. Stir together flour, baking powder, salt and pie spice; gradually beat into potato mixture on low speed just until blended. Spoon half of the batter into pan. Sprinkle with half of the crumb topping. Top with remaining batter and crumb topping.
  5. Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack 10 minutes; remove from pan and place top side up on wire rack. Cool completely.
  6. To Make Glaze: Stir ingredients until thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle cake with glaze.
  7. Tip: The cook time includes baking 2 large sweet potatoes. I also like to crush the entire box of cereal and keep the unused in a airtight container.
