Side Essentials: Twice-Baked Sweet Potato Heaven image

This is a really fun way to bake up some fantastic sweet potatoes. They can be served at your next football party as a snack, or you could have them as a side at your next dinner party. I personally serve a variation of this as one of my sides at Thanksgiving. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

PLAN/PURCHASE
THE POTATO
1 large sweet potato
2 Tbsp plain greek yogurt, or sour cream
1/8 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 Tbsp fresh clover honey
salt, kosher variety, to taste
black pepper, freshly ground, to taste
THE TOPPING
1/4 c chopped walnuts
1 Tbsp sweet butter, unsalted, melted
1 Tbsp fresh clover honey
ADDITIONAL ITEMS
olive oil, for brushing the skins

Steps:

  • 1. PREP/PREPARE
  • 2. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
  • 3. THE POTATO
  • 4. Add a rack to the middle position, and preheat the oven to 400f (205c).
  • 5. Wash the sweet potato, and use a paring knife or fork to prick the skin.
  • 6. Chef's Note: Pricking the skin of a potato will allow steam to escape; keeping the potato from splitting open during the baking process.
  • 7. Brush with a bit of olive oil, and lightly sprinkle with salt.
  • 8. Place the potato on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and place in the oven until cooked through, about 20 - 35 minutes; depending on how big your potatoes are.
  • 9. Chef's Tip: A potato is cooked through, when a fork or paring knife inserted into the potato goes in without resistance.
  • 10. Allow to cool, and then, using a spoon, carefully remove the insides, while leaving the skins intact.
  • 11. Mix the sweet potato with the remainder of the ingredients, and add back into the potato skins.
  • 12. THE TOPPING
  • 13. Add the topping ingredients together.
  • 14. Divide between the filled potato skins.
  • 15. Return to the preheated oven, and bake for an addition 12 - 15 minutes, or until the tops begin to brown.
  • 16. PLATE/PRESENT
  • 17. Serve by themselves as a party snack, or as a side at your next dinner party. Enjoy.
  • 18. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

I've tried many twice-baked sweet potato recipes, but this one is by far the best. The secret is in the maple syrup and brown sugar glaze. It gives the potatoes a perfectly caramelized crust.
