Instructions
Heat oven to 400 degrees.
Bake sweet potatoes until soft when pierced with a knife, 40 to 45 minutes.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine cornmeal, milk, butter, brown sugar (if using), cinnamon, cayenne, nutmeg, salt, and water. Cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
Let cool.Butter a 9-inch-by-5-inch loaf pan. Set aside. Working in batches if necessary, place cornmeal mixture, sweet potatoes, flour, honey, eggs, and cream in a food processor. Process until smooth; pour into the prepared pan.
Bake until spoonbread is set and begins to pull away from sides of pan, about 50 minutes.
Let cool slightly before serving.
