Sweet Potato Spoon Bread

Ingredients

  • 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 freshly grated nutmeg

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

  • 1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon all-purpose flour

  • 1/4 cup honey

  • 4 large eggs

1. 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.

2. Reduce the heat to 350. 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.
