Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Peel and mash the sweet potatoes until smooth.

In a large bowl, mix the mashed sweet potatoes with sugar and melted butter until well combined.

Add eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture and stir until smooth.

In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the sweet potato mixture, stirring until just combined.

Fold in milk, pecans, and raisins until evenly distributed.

Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan.

Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
