- 1 cup milk
- 1 orange, zested and juiced
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting pans
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon ground allspice
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 cup salted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 1/2 cups cooked, mashed sweet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon almond extract
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans; line bottoms with greased parchment paper.
- Combine milk and 2 tablespoons orange juice in a bowl; set aside at room temperature for at least 10 minutes.
- Mix orange zest, flour, baking powder, baking soda, allspice, cinnamon, and sea salt together in a bowl.
- Beat white sugar, butter, and brown sugar together in a large bowl using an electric mixer on high speed until creamy. Reduce speed to low; slowly add 1/3 of the beaten eggs and mix until well incorporated. Repeat process until all eggs are added. Add sweet potatoes and almond extract; mix until smooth.
- Stir flour mixture into butter mixture 1/3 at a time, alternating with milk-juice mixture. Beat on low speed until just incorporated. Divide batter evenly between prepared pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes. Cool in pans for 10 minutes; invert onto rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes.
