Maple Crock Pot Turkey Dinner

7 lb turkey breast (with skin and bones)
1/4 white onion (diced)
3 T butter
1 pan cornbread (8"x8", I used the jiffy)
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp thyme
2 sweet potatoes
1/3 C. good maple syrup
1/2 C. apricot preserves
8 oz. Chicken stock
1/3 C. honey

Cube cornbread. Saute onion in butter until transparent. Add salt, pepper, thyme, and cornbread. Place in the bottom of a 5.5 qt cock pot (I used a really thick heavy roasting pan with lid to cook mine in the oven, it worked great), add cubed sweet potatoes, and pour in chicken stock and half the maple syrup and preserves. Salt and pepper the turkey as desired and place on top of potatoes. Pour maple syrup over turkey. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours. Baste with honey after 2 hours. Brown turkey in broiler. Top with apricot jam to serve.

*This is soooo yummy. I added some seasonings to the top of our turkey (garlic powder, onion powder, sage, more thyme, kosher salt, and pepper).

I thought the cornbread would come out nasty, but it came out so moist and yummy!!!
