- Sweet Potato Cornbread
1 1/2 cups cornmeal
1 cup All-Purpose Flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon all spice
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup baked and mashed sweet potato
2 eggs
1/2 stick (4 Tablespoons) melted butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
Begin by baking your sweet potato. Scrub the potato well to make sure it’s clean, wrap it in foil, and bake in a 350° preheated oven for one hour. At the end of one hour, reduce the temperature to 170° and continue baking the potato for another 6 to 8 hours. 
Remove the sweet potato from the oven, remove the potato peeling, and using a fork, mash the potato well. Measure out one cup of mashed sweet potato. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 375°. 
Using a medium bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg. Set aside.
The mixing may be done by hand or using an electric mixer. Blend together well the mashed sweet potato, eggs, melted butter, sour cream, and light brown sugar.  Gradually add the dry ingredients and buttermilk, alternating between the two until it is all added and mixed in.
Pour the cornbread mixture into a well greased 9 X 9-inch baking dish.  Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until the center tests done with a toothpick. Serve warm with plenty of softened butter.

I have never heard of sweet potato cornbread, but I love sweet potatoes. Merry Christmas🎄🎅🏼🎄
We hope you will give this a try, Deborah. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
I am a new subscriber. Really enjoying your "countdown to Christmas" series. You are definitely ambitious! I have found that you highlight some recipes that I have never run across anywhere else. Can't wait to try some of them! Thank you for your dedication to your channel!
I appreciate your kind and encouraging words, Heidi. We’re thrilled to have you at the table with us. We hope you find lots of good recipes to try. Merry Christmas!
I absolutely will fix this swt potatoe cornbread for Christmas. Thanks
We hope everyone loves it as much as we do, Doris. Merry Christmas!
It looks amazing! I’m a cornbread lover anyway and this puts it over the top!
Thanks, granswick. Merry Christmas!
New type of cornbread but after watching this video I'm going to make it over the Holidays. Love all your recipes so far. Thank you Merry Christmas
Wow! I love cornbread and I love sweet potatoes but I've never had sweet potato cornbread. I will definitely make this. My mouth is watering and I could make a meal with just this cornbread. Yummy!
Julie, we hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
That looks soooooo goooooood!!!! Oh my goodness. I want to make it right this minute. Take another bite……🤭😉❤️🎄
Heidi, it really is delicious. We hope you give it a try. Merry Christmas!
Oh that looked and sounds so good. I love the way you baked those sweet potatoes, learned that after we moved to Texas in 1996. Just eat mine plain and dry right out of the oven and they are the best. Going to have a try with the cornbread to make the sweet potato cornbread and see how it works for us. Thanks everyone who shared the recipe. Fred.
Thank you for a wonderful recipe and the tip for baking potato's
Looks delicious, Tom. Sweet potatoes are a family favorite. I have had success with wrapping them in foil and "baking" them in the crockpot all day. I agreed that the slow cooking method definitely makes a difference in the texture and sweetness. I'm looking forward to trying sweet potato cornbread with a pot of chili this week. It's cold in the area where I live, so we've been eating soups, stews, and chili quite often. Thanks for sharing. I appreciate you and Melissa working so hard to bring this series to us.
This cornbread will be perfect with chili, Susan. Merry Christmas!
What a beautiful cornbread! Never seen a recipe like that before, and thank you for the baking tips for sweet potatoes/yams.
I got so excited because I love pretty much anything cornmeal/cornbread, but I'm not so much a fan of sweet potatoes. I was thinking this was going to be a sweet potato dish I'd love because of the cornmeal, but then you said it doesn't really taste like cornmeal. Oh well. I'd still give it a try, though. I had pumpkin cornbread at a restaurant in North Carolina once, and that stuff was amazing. Still loving this series. Can't wait for more!
I think you would absolutely love this cornbread, David. You should give it a try! Merry Christmas, my friend.!
I was told when Microwaving potato, it will explode if holes are not poked throuh peeling. Plus, an egg will explode in microwave if yolk is not broken first.
Love this recipe! Thank You❤
I use the microwave to cook potatoes in all the time. I wash them, leave them wet and put them in a quilted bag, microwave 2 minutes per potato, then let them rest 15 minutes before using. 4 is the max that I do at a time. Not huge potatoes either. No poking.
@@FoxLuv Can one buy a quilted bag to microwave potatoes? That's nice when in a hurry on the run. I still love baking them foiled and in oven. It's a whole different texture, to say the least. Thanks!
We have one too @@KatsHatmy grandmother’s niece gave us hers.
@@KatsHat the product is called Potato Express. Works great, but I don't use the exact instructions. I've had to figure out what works best for a good result.
@@FoxLuv Wowzer! Thank You!❤
Oh my word, this looks so good! I'll be making this, we love cornbread and sweet potatoes so a mix would be Heavenly!
We hope you enjoy this cornbread as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
This Sweet Potato Cornbread recipe looks so delicious 😋Mr. Tom.
From Grapevine (STEVE ROSENTRETER)
I love you both lots and Happy Hanukkah 🕎!
I love your recipes!
Happy Hanukkah, Steve! It makes my day to hear that you enjoy our channel and love our recipes. We’re glad you’re here at the table with us.
Can you please pray for my healing my stomach issues and have to get a scope test! Its hard when you have to eat bland and very lil! Food😊 thank you i know im on your prayer chain 🎄🙏bless you both Merry Christmas
I’ve been going through the same thing, no fun.
@@DebbyBrandt-y8z first it was an ulcer now this be prayin for you also🙏
I'm praying for you 🙏🏼 ❤️
I have stomach problems also 😩
Yes, Vicki, you remain in our prayers. May God touch and heal your body. Amen.
I sure enjoy you guys cooking together doing your channel together you have a very sweet marriage and truly enjoy the recipes you come with God bless you both❤❤❤
Thank you,Debbie. We appreciate your kind and encouraging words. Merry Christmas!
I love that you scrape out every bit of product from it's container to make sure you get all of it 😀 You get accurate measurements that way, which is so important when baking.
It makes me a lil' crazy when cooks waste food by not doing that! That's probably a lil' silly but it just bugs me. 😊 Love you guys!
Me too!!!!! I also get annoyed when the soup cans aren't swished out with a liquid that's in the recipe.
My parents always taught me to scrape out a bowl or container. I guess that was because we had to make every penny count. It’s just part of who I am. Merry Christmas!
@@tomwyant9297 My Mom wasn't the best cook and grew up on a farm during the Great Depression.They had plenty of food but not much else.She would rinse out a can or scrape a bowl and I'm the same way.I hate wasting food.I made cookies today and got every last bit of the dough out of the bowl!!! :)
Thank you for that little tip about how to cook the sweet potato. I will definitely have to try that. God bless you both
You’re welcome. We think cooking potatoes low and slow is the only way to do it. Merry Christmas!
I had one explode in the microwave. Never in the oven. I’m definitely going to try this. I like different cornbreads and sweet. ❤🇨🇦🇨🇦
We’re excited that you’re going to give it a try. We hope you love it as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
I have to try that it looks delicious 😋 have a blessed night Tom and Melissa 🙏🎄⛄️❄️
We hope you enjoyed it as much as we do, Dana. Merry Christmas!
I'm definitely going to try this. It looks sooo good. You probably won't be doing this, but I swear my sweet potatos look exactly like yours. I buy the biggest ones I can find. I poke holes in them, bake them in the microwave 3 to 4 minutes on each side ( depending on how big they are) then I wrap them singley in foil & let them sit and finish cooking. I can't justify turning on the oven for that long
We each have to do it the way that’s best for us, Janet, right? I just happen to like ours baked low and slow like the lady from the barbecue restaurant told me to do. Of course, you should do it the way you feel is best. Merry Christmas!
Leaving now to buy some sweet potatoes!! This had me drooling 😅
Sandra, I’m excited that you’re going to give this a try. I think you’re going to love it. Merry Christmas!
This recipe looks amazing!! I have a neighbor who i bake cornbread for 2-3 times a month, with honey butter. He's going to love this!!😊
I hope you and your neighbor enjoy this as much as we do. We think it’s a fabulous cornbread. Merry Christmas to you and your neighbor!
This looks just lovely and so tasty.
We think it’s absolutely delicious. Merry Christmas!
Yummy!!! ❤ Love cornbread..
I’m definitely going to try this, you made it look to delicious.
Gerald, we hope you enjoy this as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
This is a new recipe for me. I am definitely going to try soon. I usually make my cornbread in a cast iron skillet. Just to make a nice crispy crust. I will try in my cast iron, makes my mouth water. Thank you for sharing.
Jane, I normally use a cast-iron skillet for my cornbread too. I’m not sure why, but I have always made my sweet potato cornbread in a glass baking dish. I guess I need to change that. Merry Christmas!
I’ve made your caramel candy and it was delicious. I will be making this one too.
Also I watch a video that you were cooking sausage and I liked the way you cut it out of the tube which made it so easy. I do that now and it works great. Boy, at 73, I’m learning so much from you. Now I won’t poke my potatoes and I’ll be baking them like you do.
How sweet of you, Connie. I appreciate your kind words. Merry Christmas!
Tom and Melisa I’m going to try this sweet potato cornbread ❤
Irene, it’s sooooo good! I think you’re going to love it. Merry Christmas!
You did it! WOW!😊😊😮
Merry Christmas, Dolores!
Oh, this is coming this week! Thankfully I'd eaten before this video!❤
We hope you enjoyed it as much as we do, Nancy. Merry Christmas!
I may not make the cornbread, but I am going to try baking the potatoes. I love sweet potatoes.
I think you are going to love a sweet potato or a baked potato baked using this method. They are so delicious! Merry Christmas!
Oh Dear Lord !!! I have to make this!!!! Thank you so much ! I love every single video! I make alot of your recipes . Merry Christmas and God Bless!❤
Robin, I’m so excited that you found this video enticing, and that you’re going to make it. We hope you love it as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
I have heard of sweet potatoes corn bread. And I love sweet potatoes cooked any way I can’t wait to try this recipe Thank you for sharing I love your videos I hope you and family have a blessed Christmas 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Tom, I’m so glad you showed us how to bake a good sweet potato!! I love sweet potatoes anyway you cook them. And, I feel the same way about cornbread. So, the very thought of combining these two makes me sooooooooo happy!! ❤
You've enriched another all time favorite.
Merry Christmas everyone.
Thank you both❤
Thank you, geegaw. Merry Christmas!
I like each half of my slice to have plenty of butter and honey. Merry Christmas.
AZCanner, Melissa does too. Merry Christmas!
Another great recipe! Thank you both. My next cornbread will be this one.
Elizabeth Ann, we hope you enjoy it every bit as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
I've never had or heard of sweet potatoe cornbread. Looks delicious. Thank you Tom and Melissa
We hope you’ll give it a try and love it as much as we do, Kim. Merry Christmas!
@tomwyant9297 I will give it a try. Thank you. Happy holidays to you too
I've never had that before but I am definitely going to try it
I hope you love it as much as we do, Jimmy. Merry Christmas!
We in SC buy sweet potatoes by the bushel at the farmers market. After cured we bake in the oven after washing fork speared and rubbed in oil. After cool we freeze them skin on in freezer bags. Saves on foil. Lol
That’s a great tip. Merry Christmas!
What does "cured" mean?
@rosesstarbright cured means when sweet potatoes are first dug they need to sit for a least 2 weeks to a month. My parents were from farm families and that is the way they did it. We eat more sweet potatoes than white. 2 or 3 bushels a year from the farmers market. When we buy from the store they can be baked right away as they have been out of the ground a while.
Look how high that rose. Looks so good!
Isn’t it beautiful! Merry Christmas!
This recipe sounds soooo good! I've never baked sweet potatoes the way you just did; I like them so much, I just nuke them in the microwave and put butter on them and eat them. I am going to try your way. I am also going to make this corn bread. It will take me a day or three to eat the whole thing, but I believe I can do it! I make regular cornbread frequently----I even like it with eggs for breakfast! Blessings to you both----and everybody here in the comments section.
I am so excited that you’re going to give this sweet potato cornbread, a try. I think you’re going to love it! Merry Christmas!
@@tomwyant9297 Thank you and Merry Christmas to you!
I already need a bib and you have just peeled the potatoe. I have never heard of sweet potato cornbread, but it has to be good sweet potato and cornbread has to be good.
PRAYERS
I think you’re going to love it! Merry Christmas!
I’ve never heard of this!! I bet it’s delicious!!
We think it’s absolutely delicious, Cindy. We hope you give it a try. Merry Christmas!
What a great way to prepare cornbread. I'm baking this to serve with our Christmas dinner. By the way, your pumpkin bread was a HUGE hit when I served it during Thanksgiving. Thank you for such great recipes and videos.
Merry Christmas. Thanks for posting.
You’re welcome. Merry Christmas!
Tom, this looks delicious. Merry Christmas and have a blessed season. God bless.

We appreciate that more than you could possibly know. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Now this one was new to me! It sounds fabulous and when I make it, I will just use my gluten free flour mixture instead of wheat flour. The tip on baking potatoes is one I will definitely try!
Thanks so much!
❤-Brenda
I HAVE to try this!!! Love
Teresa, we hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you both! Love that you visit our area! We are about 20 minutes north of Clarksville on I65 from where you visit Derby Dinner Playhouse. I enjoy your videos and recipes so much!
Looks good I want to try this thanks
We hope you do try it and enjoy it as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
I bake mine in the microwave, they are just as good, and less time!!🙂
We have done ours in the microwave too, and while they are good, I think this is the much better method. Of course, we each have our own preferences, don’t we? Thanks for watching our video! Merry Christmas!
I am literally making this right now!
Please let me know what you think about the sweet potato cornbread. We hope you love it as much as we do! Merry Christmas!
This something I've never heard of thank you I'm differently something I Will try it.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we do, Rebecca. Merry Christmas!
Never have heard of this before but, I 'm Definitely going to make this❤
We hope you love it as much as we do, Gracie. Merry Christmas!
Looks great!
Thank you, Emily. Merry Christmas!
i have never had a potato explode and I don't poke holes either. Maybe it's the wattage of the microwave, mine is 1200 watts but I use a lower power level. A lot of times I cook my potatoes in the pressure cooker, although I think in the oven, on low gives you a much more concentrated flavor. I never use a lot of sugar either, but I'll serve it with a side of honey butter for those with a sweet tooth.
Nice recipe, thank you for sharing.
It sounds like you do your potatoes a lot like I do mine, Lisa. I love the concentrated flavors from baking them. Low and slow. So delicious! Merry Christmas!
Yummy yummy yummy😋
Merry Christmas, Catherine!
Looks amazing ! Worth the little extra effort am sure Thanks
It really is delicious, Bren. Merry Christmas!
My mom had special "potato nails" that she would stick one into an end of the potato before she put it into the oven. I think that they were used to transfer the heat into the center of the spud. I do that too, & don't think they've ever been dry (I guess the nail seals the hole). Although, honestly, I never thought to use the nail in my sweet potatoes when I bake them! LOL
Tom, I hope your fingers are OK!
Sue, it’s funny that you mentioned the potato nails because my parents used those too. I can remember that occasionally around the nail, the potato would get really dark and we would have to pick that out before we ate the potato. Kind of strange! And, thank you for your concern about my fingers, but they were fine. Merry Christmas!
My mother and Grandmother were from Kentucky, and I grew up eating sweet potato pie for Thanksgiving Day dinners. I learned to eat a pumpkin pie. But to me. Nothing will do but a sweet potato pie. Your method for preparing the potato I can not wait to try. Thank you for your tutorial.☺️ Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🎄😊♥️
Sounds yummy 😋
Thank you! Merry Christmas!
I found this very interesting & I'm definitely going to try it.
Oh my! This recipe sounds delicious. Ordered my copy of your cookbook today and I’m so anxious to cook allot of your tasty treats for my friends and family. This Montana woman is happy I found your videos!! Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and yours❤
Thank you! ❤
You’re welcome, Joanne. Merry Christmas!
Another Winner!!! Do you all ever sleep??? Keep them coming!!! Love the stories behind the recipe and you are such a great teacher!!!! Merry Christmas to you both and your family!!
I sleep very little, Doc. I wish I was a better sleeper, but I sleep just like my maternal grandmother did. Thank you for your kind and encouraging words. Merry Christmas!
❤❤ Hi, Tom and Melissa.
I always make corn breadbto go with chili.
I can't wait to try this sweet potato cornbread.
I think is going to be amazing with hot (peppers) chili and the sweet potato corn bread.
Thank you again for your recipe.
Can't wait to make it ❤❤❤
Those two would be a wonderful combination! Merry Christmas!
Thank you for the Tip on baking potato & sweet potato . I always poked holes and now I know better . Ps I have a cousin in Winchester KY
Im loving watching you each day!! thank you both for all the hard work ...c.w
Sorry i dont like corn bread but i do love how u did ur sweet potatoes .they look so good and ur right not stringing..thanku for this and have a wonderful day❤❤
I have got to try this- I've never heard of it before! Thanks for sharing anfd we love the countdown to Christmas, just wish it would slow down a little bit!!!!
Looks delicious I have never had sweet potato corn bread and I am 62 years old! I need to try it!Tom and Melissa you have a very Merry Christmas 🎄🧑🏻🎄🎅🏻🎄
I do not like sweet potatoes BUT I do like sweet potato biscuits and muffins so will probably like this. I love cornbread with tons of butter too. I like a thinner cornbread so will probably use a slightly bigger pan. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
Wow yummy so good
We hope you enjoy it as much as we do, Vicki. Merry Christmas!
Wow Tom, you had the Guy Fieri hunch going on with that, love it! A really nice twist on cornbread for sure 😊
Yellow cornmeal does cook different than white cornmeal. When using yellow cornmeal, you should use a hot liquid to mix the batter,
I have never used the white cornmeal. Thanks for the tip
That’s a good tip, Jane. Merry Christmas!
I'll have to try this. Never heard of that before.
We hope you enjoyed it as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
allspice really adds a nice flavor
Looks amazing 😍
Looks delicious!
Looks. Goods
Thank you, Sue. Merry Christmas!
I would love for you to try my method and let me know how you liked it. I always cut my sweet potatoes lengthwise in half. Then I place them down on the cut side on an aluminum foil lined pan. I cover them with aluminum foil tightly and bake them for 1 hour and 10 minutes at 375 degrees. They come out looking exactly like yours. And they take a lot less time!!!! Never had it fail on me yet. Much love to you and Melissa.
I might have to try that sometime, Warren. Thank you for that recipe. Merry Christmas!
I would put this recipe into a 9 x 13 pan. The cornbread will be thinner, but I would prefer it that way. This would be good with a picnic food or BBQ. Looks yummy. I’d mix the butter with honey because I love honey in my cornbread. Thanks for the recipe.
Looks delish!!!! Gonna try this too!!!!👍🏽🤗🙏🏽🥰🌷🎄🩷🪴🪸🦩🌴✝️💙🇺🇸😋‼️
We hope you enjoy it every bit as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
Thank,yall❤️
You’re welcome. Merry Christmas!
Can’t wait to make this! Ty.❤🌽
We hope you enjoy it every bit as much as we do. Merry Christmas!
I never heard of putting these two foods together except for on a plate . It really is a thing then . I feel each flavor is so grant they need to star in their own production. But then it’s kinda like putting beets in a Red Velvet cake . That’s a good thing maybe we should give it a whirl . Thanks for the recipe folks !❤
tater! That's where we lived with my inlaws when I first married then Lexington! My motherinlaw down in a haller in Jackson I think way down!😊
Vicki, many of my wife’s family still live in Jackson. It’s a small world. Merry Christmas!
I’ve never heard of cooking potatoes like that before. The best potatoes I’ve ever made were made in the crock pot and slow cooked all day. Your way sounds similar to the crock pot way.
I’ve never been crazy about sweet potatoes but I’d like to see how they taste in a cornbread.
I use self rising White Lily white cornmeal mix. Would I still have to add the flour, baking powder and baking soda? I love cornbread so I’ve got to try this recipe. Thank you both once again. 🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻
Yes, I would still add the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. I use Martha White self rising white cornmeal.
@ Thank you.. It’s a must try. 🙏🏻
