Honey Butter Sweet Potato Cornbread
This comforting cornbread brings a touch of sweetness with mashed sweet potatoes and honey butter, perfect for any meal! Enjoy a slice warm and fluffy with a deliciously sweet finish!
Ingredients:
– 2 large eggs
– 1/2 cup melted butter
– 1 cup yellow cornmeal
– 1/4 cup honey
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup softened butter for honey butter
– 1/4 cup honey for honey butter
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375F 190C. Prepare a baking dish by greasing or lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
2. In a large mixing bowl, sift together the yellow cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of the dry ingredients.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, eggs, melted butter, honey, and buttermilk. Whisk these ingredients together until smooth, making sure there are no lumps in the sweet potatoes.
4. Gently pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula just until everything is combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
5. Transfer the cornbread batter to the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
6. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. While the cornbread is baking, prepare the honey butter by mixing the softened butter and honey in a small bowl until fully blended and creamy.
8. Once baked, remove the cornbread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Serve it warm, generously spread with the honey butter for a delightful treat.
