You've probably heard of corn pone, but did you know it can also be made with other vegetables? May we offer to you sweet potato one, made a bit lighter and less starchy because we replaced half of the sweet potatoes with butternut squash puree. This sweet dish is usually served for dessert, but it would also be great paired with grilled sausages or roast pork or chicken.
