Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large sweet potatoes
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
2 cups milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup honey
4 large eggs
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake sweet potatoes until soft when pierced with a knife, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool. Peel, and discard skins.
  • Reduce heat to 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine cornmeal, milk, butter, brown sugar, spices, salt, and 1 cup water. Cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
  • Butter a 2-quart baking dish. Working in batches if necessary, place cornmeal mixture, sweet potatoes, flour, honey, eggs, and cream in a food processor. Process until smooth; pour into dish. Bake until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Serve.

General Baking Recommendations:

  • Precise Measurements: Adhere to precise measurements for a consistent bake. Use standard-size (8x8x2-inch) square or (9x5x3-inch) loaf pans.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Employ fresh, high-quality ingredients to ensure the best results. This includes using cold butter right out of the fridge.
  • Follow Instructions: Follow instructions diligently, paying attention to the order of ingredient addition and cooking time.
  • Substitutions: For gluten-free bread, try using alternative flours like almond or coconut. You can also replace refined sugar with healthier options like coconut or brown sugar.
  • Patience in Kneading: Kneading the bread is an essential part of gluten formation, which provides the bread with its structure and elasticity. Take your time with this step to ensure a smooth, supple texture.
  • Conclusion:

    Crafting delectable sweet treats at home is a gratifying experience that's often shared with loved ones.
