Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (204°C) and grease a 9x9 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the sweet potatoes until smooth. Add the melted butter, honey, buttermilk, and eggs, mixing until creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Gradually pour the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. In a small bowl, combine softened butter, honey, and cinnamon to prepare the cinnamon honey butter.
  8. Once baked, let the cornbread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, slice, and serve warm with the cinnamon honey butter.
