Tips:

  • Selecting the right sweet potatoes: Choose firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size for even cooking.
  • Pricking the sweet potatoes: Before baking, poke holes in the sweet potatoes with a fork or knife. This helps the steam escape and prevents the potatoes from bursting.
  • Adding moisture: If you find that the sweet potatoes are drying out during the baking process, you can add some water or broth to the bottom of the crock pot.
  • Cooking time: The cooking time for sweet potatoes in a crock pot will vary depending on the size of the potatoes and the temperature of the crock pot. Generally, it takes about 4-6 hours on low or 2-3 hours on high.
  • Checking for doneness: To check if the sweet potatoes are done, insert a fork or knife into the center of a potato. If it goes in easily, the potatoes are done.

Conclusion:

Baking sweet potatoes in a crock pot is a simple and easy way to cook this delicious and nutritious vegetable. With just a few simple steps, you can have perfectly cooked sweet potatoes that are soft, flavorful, and ready to enjoy. Whether you like them plain or topped with your favorite ingredients, baked sweet potatoes are a great addition to any meal.
