I boil the sweet potatoes until the skin starts to peel off; it usually takes about 20-30 minutes. Remove them and peel off the skin. I then cut them into slices and put them toss them in melted butter, oil and brown sugar. Put them in a pan (try to arrange them so they don't touch) and cook in oven on 400 degrees until they are done.

I posted on a previous thread. I'll bump it. It's so yummy!! The recipe calls for canned, it doesn't matter what you use though I'm sure.

I do them similar. Once they are peeled I put them in a baked dish and toss with melted butter, brown sugar and a little,bit of real maple syrup. Bake for about 20 min till all warm and bubbling. Top them with mini marshmallows and turn on broiler till brown.

Not for the health conscious......but we only eat them this way once a year and they are delish!

Re: Can we Swap Sweet Potato recipes?

I bake mine in the skins until they're slightly soft...let them cool down a little and the skin pops off easily. I also notice that they get sweeter when you leave the skins on, it's like a carmelization or something. Then I cut them and lay them flat in a sprayed pan. Top with some brown sugar mixed with pecans and marshmallows and heat until the marshmallows start to melt (but keep an eye on them or they will burn!).

Re: Can we Swap Sweet Potato recipes?

I roast them whole for over an hour until they are ridiculously soft. the longer you roast, the sweeter they taste.

sometimes I serve them whole like that, sometimes I cube up and mash with cinnamon, vanilla, butter, and milk.

or you could slice up casserole style and top with cinnamon brown sugar marshmellows nuts...whatever.

sometimes I will just cut them up raw into french fries and roast them that way with rosemary salt and pepper.

I love sweet potatoes!

Re: Can we Swap Sweet Potato recipes?

I peel them and slice them in half so each potato makes two. Then I put about three slits in face up side of each and put a thin slice of butter in each slit. Top with brown sugar. Bake in the oven at 400 for about 30 min. Then top with mini marshmallows and bake another 10-15 min.

BAKE THE SWEET POTATOES. WHEN COOL ENOUGH, PEEL AND THEN MASH IN A BOWL. ADD BROWN SUGAR. FORM BALLS - A BIT SMALLER THAN A TENNIS BALL .. STUFF A MARSHMALLOW INSIDE AND MAKE SURE THE POTATO COMPLETELY COVERS THE MARSHMALLOW. IN A BOWL PUT SHREDDED COCONUT, BROWN SUGAR, CINNAMON. ROLL THE POTATO BALLS IN THE COCONUT UNTIL COMPLETELY COVERED. IN A GREASED BAKING DISH BAKE ON 350 UNTIL ITS HEATED ALL THE WAY THROUGH. MAKE SURE YOU DONT LEAVE THEM IN SO LONG THAT THE MARSHMALLOW EXPLODES.

SOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
