Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size so they cook evenly.

  • Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender: This usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the potatoes.
  • Make the orange glaze while the sweet potatoes are baking: This will give the flavors time to meld.
