Oil a 10-inch skillet. Cast iron works great. If using a skillet with a plastic handle, wrap with aluminum foil
Place skillet in oven while prepping
Place all dry ingredients in a large bowl, set aside
Place mashed sweet potatoes and the rest of the wet ingredients in a medium bowl. Whisk together until well combined. Add whisked eggs to the mixture; stir
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
Pour the sweet potato mixture into the well and begin folding until there are no longer any visible dry ingredients and slightly lumpy. Be careful not to over mix
Spoon the cornbread mixture into the hot skillet. Be careful of the skillet’s hot handle
Bake for approximately 20 minutes until the top is light golden brown and it begins to crack.
Remove from oven and place 2-3 thin pats of butter on the top.
Notes
ENJOY A LITTLE TASTE OF HEAVENRIGHT HERE IN AUSTIN, TEXASOk, don’t judge me!I put a wedge of cornbread on a plate drizzled with a little bit of warm maple syrup & a pat of butter on the top. It was delicious!If you don’t need to be gluten free, use regular flour and delete the xanthan gum. The basic recipe can be easily changed up. Add fried ground spiced up turkey to the batter & bake. Of course, adding cheddar cheese and green chilies is always popular.Please try this yummy g/f cornbread and send me pics! I love hearing from y'all!Love, connie
