Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 to 6 medium sweet potatoes
1/2 c salted butter, softened (1 stick/8 tablespoons)
1 Tbsp honey
1 tsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp sugar

Steps:

1. Gather ingredients. (Allow for time for butter to soften.) Preheat oven to 450` F.
2. Scrub potatoes under running water, dry with paper towel, then wrap each in two layers of aluminum foil.
3. Bake potatoes at 450` F for 1 hour or until soft when poked with a fork or knife.
4. While sweet potatoes are baking, make the cinnamon honey butter by mashing softened butter, with a fork, in a small bowl.
5. Add honey, cinnamon and sugar; mix well until thoroughly combined. Set aside or refrigerate until potatoes have finished baking.
6. When sweet potatoes have finished baking, remove from oven, remove foil (CAREFUL! HOT!) and place on serving plate.
7. Split potatoes and add a dollop of the prepared butter. Serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers.

Tips:

Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
Pierce the sweet potatoes before baking: This helps them cook more evenly and prevents them from bursting.
Rub the sweet potatoes with oil: This helps them crisp up in the oven and makes them more flavorful.
Use a variety of spices: Cinnamon is a classic, but you can also try other spices like nutmeg, ginger, or cloves.
Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Make sure there is enough space between the sweet potatoes so they can cook evenly.
Roast until tender: The sweet potatoes are done when they are easily pierced with a fork.

Baked cinnamon sweet potatoes are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a tasty and nutritious side dish, give baked cinnamon sweet potatoes a try!
