Baked Sweet Potato Halves Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the sweet potato halves in a large bowl and set aside. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the sugar and allspice and stir until melted and combined. Pour the spiced butter over the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Put the potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast until the potatoes are tender, turning once, about 45 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes. Transfer to a warmed platter and drizzle over any accumulated pan juices. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a glass baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Pierce sweet potatoes multiple times on each side with a fork. Rub with oil and place in the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, turning once after 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Slice sweet potatoes in half. Make small slits in the flesh for brown sugar and butter to sink into. Place 1 tablespoon brown sugar on each half. Place 1 teaspoon butter on each half.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 400*.
• Score potato halves with a knife to make grooves.
• Cover baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Melt butter and stir in garlic and salt; spread evenly across pan.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
• Sit potatoes cut side down in buttered pan.
• Place in preheated oven and bake 40-45 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise, and arrange, cut sides up, in a baking dish.
• Transfer baking dish to the oven on the lower rack, and bake until potatoes are golden brown and puffy on top, 40 to 50 minutes. Serve each topped with a dab of butter and a fresh thyme sprig and sprinkled with coarse salt to taste.

Steps:

• Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and pierce the meat using a fork or knife. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. While preheating oven add 3-4 tablespoons butter or margarine to a baking sheet or baking dish and melt in oven (for 4 potato halves, you should have a liberal amount of butter or margarine coating the bottom).
• When butter is melted remove pan and add a liberal amount of garlic salt. Add parsley, and place potatoes face down in butter.
• Bake until potatoes are tender and meat of potato is browned (approximately 35-40 minutes for medium sized Russet Potatoes).
• Can be done in Microwave (approximately 15 minutes but check frequently).
