Caramelized Sweet Potatoes

thumbs_up.pngRead my review of this recipe.

 

Ingredients:

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Place the potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending upon their size (if the potatoes are large, they may need an hour and 15 minutes). Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes. Peel the potatoes while still warm and cut each into several pieces.

Butter a small baking dish and arrange the potatoes in a single layer. Sprinkle with sugar and dot with butter. Return to oven and bake until the sugar melts and the potatoes are glazed, about 15 minutes. Keep warm until ready to serve.

Serves 4.
