Sweet Potato at Home

Ingredients

• FOR THE SWEET POTATOES:
• 4 medium sweet potatoes (about 10 oz each)
• 2 tablespoons neutral oil
• 1 tablespoon kosher salt
• FOR THE TOPPINGS:
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• Flaky sea salt
• OPTIONAL:
• 4 large marshmallows, halved
• Maple syrup drizzle
• Toasted pecans, chopped

Instructions

1. 1

   TIP: Bake sweet potatoes on a sheet pan with a piece of parchment underneath. The sugars leak during baking and stick to the pan; parchment makes cleanup easy and prevents the bottom of the potato from sticking and tearing on removal.

2. 2

   Preheat oven to 425F. Line a sheet pan with parchment.

3. 3

   Scrub potatoes clean. Pat dry. Prick with a fork 6 times each. Rub with oil, sprinkle with salt.

4. 4

   Place on parchment-lined sheet pan. Bake 45 to 60 minutes until the skin is crisp and a fork slides in easily.

5. 5

   Pull potatoes from oven. Split each lengthwise. Fluff the interior with a fork.

6. 6

   Top each with a 1 tablespoon butter pat. Sprinkle brown sugar across, then cinnamon, then nutmeg.

7. 7

   If using marshmallows: top with halved marshmallows and broil 60 seconds until toasted. Optional maple drizzle, toasted pecans. Flaky salt. Serve immediately.
