Stupendous Slow Baked Sweet Potatoes

"This is a super simple recipe that my entire extended family has adopted. It does takes 3 hours from start to finish, but the results are really worth it."

Ingredients

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes (or as many as you need)
  • 4 tablespoons butter (optional)

Directions

  • Place rack in center of oven. Preheat to 350 degrees.
  • Scrub sweet potatoes to remove any dirt. Place sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet or an oven-proof stone. Bake for one hour.
  • Remove sweet potatoes from oven, flip them to the other side, and bake another hour.
  • Once the second hour has passed, turn OFF the oven and keep the potatoes in the oven for another hour.
  • This long baking time produces a very sweet sweet potato that is very easy to peel. They are almost carmelized. (Take a bite before you add the butter, it really doesn't need it).
