Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 medium-size sweet potatoes
5 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Pinch cayenne pepper
1/2 stick unsalted butter
Vegetable oil, for greasing roasting tray
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Lightly scrub the sweet potatoes under cold running water. Place the potatoes on a roasting tray and bake until tender, 1 hour 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the potatoes to cool slightly before cutting off the top third of the potatoes lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh using a large spoon (leave enough on the base so the skin holds its shape) and reserve bases.
  • Add the potato flesh, 2 tablespoons of the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cayenne pepper and butter to a food processor. Process until the ingredients are completely combined and the puree is smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle a roasting tray with a little oil. Set the potato skin bases upright on the tray and fill with the mixture.
  • Combine the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and pecans in a small bowl. Sprinkle the top of each stuffed sweet potato with the sugar-pecan topping. Bake 10 minutes. Finish the potatoes under the broiler for the top to brown, 1 minute, if desired.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 sweet potatoes
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter
1 cup chopped crisp-cooked bacon
1 cup sour cream
2 cups grated jack cheese
2 teaspoons chili powder
3 green onions, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Put the potatoes on a baking sheet and rub them with the oil. Bake until soft, about 1 hour. Let cool enough so you can handle them.
  • Slice the butter into pats and add to a large bowl. Add the bacon and sour cream.
  • Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scrape out the insides into the bowl, being careful not to tear the skins. Leave a small rim of potato intact for support. Lay the hollowed-out skins on a baking sheet.
  • Smash the potatoes into the butter, bacon and sour cream. Add the cheese, chili powder, green onions and some salt and pepper and mash until smooth. Spoon the filling into the potato skins.
  • If baking right away, lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake until the cheese is melted and the tops are brown, about 15 minutes.
  • If cooking later, cover the stuffed potato skins with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Bake at 350 degrees F until the cheese is melted and the tops are brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

4 medium sweet potatoes of similar shape
4 strips bacon
3 scallions, chopped, 2 tablespoons reserved for garnish
2 tablespoons maple syrup
4 ounces smoked Cheddar, shredded (about 1 1/4 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Sour cream, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking pan. Bake until a paring knife inserted in the center pierces easily, about 1 hour. Cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until crisp and brown, about 7 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat. Crumble bacon.
  • Halve the sweet potatoes lengthwise. Carefully scoop most of the flesh out into a bowl, leaving enough flesh in the skin so that it holds its shape. Add the bacon, bacon fat, scallions, maple syrup and 1 cup of the cheese to the sweet potato flesh. Stir together and season with salt and pepper to taste. Refill the sweet potato shells and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  • Place the sweet potatoes back in the oven until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Top with the reserved scallions and dollops of sour cream.

LOADED TWICE-BAKED SWEET POTATOES



Loaded Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes image

They say your greatest strength is also your biggest weakness; the same starchy sweetness that makes this tuber such a popular holiday side dish also can lead to palate fatigue. That's why I've enlisted bacon, lime, jalapeno, green onions, and sharp Cheddar to make these twice-baked sweet potatoes more addictive than in any Thanksgiving past. You can prep them ahead of time and then bake when you're ready to serve.

4 orange-fleshed sweet potatoes
½ tablespoon olive oil
1 (8 ounce) package bacon, diced
⅓ cup sliced green onions
¼ cup diced jalapeno peppers
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste
cayenne pepper to taste
½ cup shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons creme fraiche
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese, or to taste
