Enjoy these perfectly caramelized sweet potatoes, baked to perfection for a naturally sweet and tender treat.
Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Lining the baking sheet with foil makes cleanup a breeze.
Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt.
Use a brush to scrub the potatoes if needed for a cleaner surface.
Place the sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 1 hour.
Ensure the sweet potatoes are spaced out on the sheet for even cooking.
Flip the sweet potatoes over and bake for an additional hour.
Flipping the potatoes helps them cook evenly on all sides.
Turn off the oven and let the sweet potatoes sit inside for another hour.
This resting period enhances the caramelization process.
Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, slice them open, and sprinkle with sea salt and ground cinnamon. Add a pat of butter to each potato before serving.
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
