Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 sweet potatoes
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • butter optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Give your sweet potatoes a good wash and scrub.
  2. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and poke 4 to 5 holes in each sweet potato with a fork or sharp knife.
  3. Bake in the oven for approximately 60 minutes, or until soft. To test if they're done, poke them with a fork or knife. You should should feel very little resistance when inserted.

Notes

  • The scrub brush I use for my sweet potatoes is a great tool to have in the kitchen for washing a variety of vegetables.
  • If you don't have a good baking sheet, I highly recommend purchasing a heavy duty baking sheet that won't warp or twist in the oven.
