30 minute Roasted Sweet Potatoes

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes, washed well
  • 16 tsp butter

  • desired salt, cinnamon, or pumpkin pie spice 

  • 1/3 c chopped pecans or pecan halves


STEPS

    1. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise. 

    2. On a lined sheet pan, place 2 teaspoons of butter dollops for each potato half. Sprinkle desired salt, and cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice over butter. If desired, sprinkle about 1/2 Tablespoon of chopped pecans per potato half as well. 

    3. Place potato halves open side down on the sheet pan in the butter, slices, and pecans 

    4. Bake at 425° 25 - 30 minutes or until fork tender and cooked. Mine took 30. Remove from oven and flip potatoes over. Turn oven to broil high and broil a few minutes, if desired to brown the tops even more. 

     

    Serve as a side with your favorite protein. I also love these prepped for lunch with sf vanilla Greek yogurt or cottage cheese. I actually like them cold for this way. They’re yummy heated up for an egg hash or served on the side of eggs. So many options!
