Adding sweet potatoes to crumbly cornbread isn’t a new idea, but it sure is a good one.

Sweet Potato Cornbread

WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS

Microwaving the sweet potatoes speeds up the cooking process and intensifies the sweetness of the potatoes. A combination of cornmeal and flour keeps the cornbread light, and brown sugar complements the caramel notes of the sweet potatoes.
