FLUFFY BAKED SWEET POTATOES



Fluffy Baked Sweet Potatoes image

The easiest way to enjoy a sweet potato: Bake it. Butter, coarse salt, and cracked pepper flavor this potato, but the flesh takes well to many toppings, including sage butter and goat cheese or pecans, cinnamon, and brown sugar.

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 small (7 1/2 ounces each) sweet potatoes, scrubbed well
Classic, Savory, or Sweet Topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place potatoes directly on middle rack, lining lower rack with foil. Bake until tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Slit potatoes lengthwise, and open. Fluff with a fork, and add topping.
  • Classic Topping: Divide 1/2 cup sour cream or creme fraiche among potatoes. Crumble 4 slices cooked bacon and sprinkle 2 tablespoons chopped chives over tops. Season with coarse salt and freshly ground pepper.
  • Savory Topping: Melt 1/4 cup unsalted butter over medium heat, swirling pan, until just beginning to brown. Swirl in 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage. Divide sage butter and 2 ounces crumbled goat cheese among potatoes. Season with coarse salt and cayenne pepper.
  • Sweet Topping: Combine 1/2 cup toasted, chopped pecans, 1/4 cup unsalted butter, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Divide among potatoes. Season with coarse salt.

BAKED SWEET POTATOES



Baked Sweet Potatoes image

Sweet potatoes are in the same family as other potatoes but cooking them requires a different approach to get the fluffy interior and sweet caramelized flavor we all love. After testing several techniques-wrapping in foil, pricking and not pricking, using a roasting pan-we found the following method delivered on all fronts, with minimal effort. Pricking with a fork allows steam to release and the potato flesh to separate from the skin, something that didn't always happen otherwise. Baking the potatoes on a wire rack nested in a baking sheet also helped the potatoes cook more evenly (and made cleaning up much easier). Lastly, allowing the potatoes to rest in the turned-off oven for 30 minutes after baking allowed the flavors to develop even further, though you can skip this step if you are short on time.

Time 1h35m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 medium sweet potatoes (8 to 12 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Unsalted butter, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then set a wire rack inside the baking sheet.
  • Prick each of the sweet potatoes 5 times with a fork and place on top of the prepared rack, keeping space between potatoes to allow heat to circulate. Bake the sweet potatoes until a paring knife can easily go through without resistance, about 1 hour. Turn the oven off and let the potatoes rest inside for 30 minutes more. Remove from the oven and cut each potato in half lengthwise. Season with salt and pepper and top with butter if using.
