Sweet Potato Buttermilk Cornbread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• In a large bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter with two forks, a pastry cutter or your fingers until mixture is crumbly.

Steps:

• For the sweet potato pie filling: Boil the sweet potato whole in a saucepan in enough water to cover until tender when pierced, 20 to 25 minutes. Peel and slice.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 12-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray.
• Combine the sweet potato, sugar, butter, cream, orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and egg in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain. Set aside.
• Make the cornbread: Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the buttermilk, egg, butter and oil in a separate bowl. Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring just until the dry ingredients are moistened. (The batter will be lumpy and thick.)
• Pour the cornbread batter into the greased skillet. Spoon the sweet potato pie filling over the top in dollops. Use a wooden or metal skewer to create a marbling effect. (But do not mix in the sweet potato filling too much.)
• Bake the cornbread until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 7 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Mom's is the ultimate example of a life well-lived. I am in total awe of her. She's smart, accomplished, beautiful-inside and out-loving, courageous, and bubbling over with the sheer joy of living.
• It's been an easy fifty years for Dad, clearly. To further endear her to me personally, she and her friends turn out some excellent eats! Mom herself makes this sweet potato cornbread that is worth driving all the way to Mountain Pine, Arkansas, for, but you won't have to-here's how you do it.
• Mix together this dry stuff: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup yellow cornmeal, 4 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup sugar.
• Separetely, mix together this wet stuff: 3 sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed (or you may use 1 16 ounce can of sweet potatoes, and in this recipe, it really is okay not to use home-cooked ones, I would tell you if it mattered), 2 eggs, 6 tablespoons milk, and 3 tablespoons oil.
• Then mix the dry stuff and the wet stuff, just until it's all moist (don't beat it to death), then put it in greased muffin tins and bake at 425 until done-usually about 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Grease an 8 by 8 inch baking dish.
• Fry chopped bacon over medium heat until almost crisp, then drain and cool.

• Add cornmeal to milk and butter, stirring to combine, and then set aside.
• In a large bowl whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, thyme, baking soda, and salt, then stir in cheese.
• In a second bowl stir together mashed sweet potatoes and eggs.
• Stir cornmeal mixture into potato and egg mixture.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture, stirring, and add vinegar and chopped bacon.
