2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until well blended.
3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
4. Stir in the flour and cinnamon until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
5. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
