2 1/2 cups whole milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
Cooking spray
1 package refrigerated mashed sweet potatoes (20-24 oz)
5 large eggs (or 1 1/4 cups egg substitute)
1 package corn muffin mix (6-8.5 oz)
2/3 cup apple butter
Small zip-top (or pastry) bag

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Place in large microwave-safe bowl: milk, butter, salt, and peppers; microwave on HIGH for 3-4 minutes or until warm and butter is melted. Remove from microwave and whisk to combine. Coat 13- x 9-inch baking dish with spray. Combine in second large bowl: sweet potatoes, eggs, and corn muffin mix; slowly whisk in milk mixture until combined. Pour batter into prepared baking dish. Place apple butter in zip-top bag, then seal bag and snip off one corner. Squeeze lines of apple butter lengthwise over batter (about 2 inches apart), then carefully drag a knife though batter vertically to create design. Bake 40-45 minutes or until edges are golden and center is set. Cool 10 minutes before serving.
