Steps:

In a large bowl, combine warm water, yeast, salt, oil, sugar, and 4 cups flour. Mix thoroughly, and let sponge rise until doubled in size.
Gradually add about 4 cups flour, kneading until smooth. Place dough in a greased bowl, and turn several times to coat. Cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise until doubled.
Punch down the dough, let it rest a few minutes. Divide dough into three equal parts. Shape into loaves, and place in three 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch greased bread pans. Let rise until almost doubled.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 35 to 45 minutes. The loaves may need to be covered for the last few minutes with foil to prevent excess browning.

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Wrap sweet potato in aluminum foil.
Bake sweet potato in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a fork, about 1 hour. Set aside to cool.

Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean, about 1 hour.
Heat brown sugar and butter in a small saucepan over low heat until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup chopped pecans and stir to combine. Remove from heat. Pour glaze over bread.

In a large bowl, combine 1 1/2 tablespoons of sugar and water. Sprinkle yeast over top of the mixture and allow it to sit for 10 minutes and foamy.
The yeast puffs up and covers the surface of the water. If your yeast doesn't foam up within ten minutes you might need to use slightly cooler water or get some fresh yeast.
My grandmother always said that as a general rule run tap water on top of the underside of your wrist or forearm until you can just tolerate the heat. That is when you grab your large measuring cup, whatever heat resistant bowl you are using and add your water, sugar and then yeast.
Stir in 2 3/4 cups of the flour until incorporated. Cover with a warm damp cloth and place in a warm area for 45 minutes. My grandmother always left the bread in front of the window with the sun shining on it. This bread needs to rise in a warm area or it will not rise properly.
