Maple Glazed Sweet Potato Wedges With Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Toss the sweet potato chunks, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl, and spread the sweet potatoes out onto a large rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until browned and tender, about 40 minutes; stir after the first 20 minutes.
• Cook the bacon until crisp and brown in a large skillet over medium heat, about 10 minutes; transfer bacon to a bowl, but leave the grease in the skillet. Cook the onions in the bacon grease until browned, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low, and cook the onions until very soft, brown, and sweet, another 10 to 15 minutes. Stir often. Mix the onions with the bacon in the bowl, and set aside.
• Pour the maple syrup into the hot skillet with the thyme, and bring to a rolling boil. Boil the syrup until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Place the roasted sweet potatoes and onion-bacon mixture into the skillet, and stir to coat the vegetables with maple glaze. Transfer to a serving dish.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut each sweet potato in half lengthwise, then slice each half into 3 or 4 wedges, 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick.
• In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes with the oil and salt. Spread onto the baking sheet in a single layer, leaving a little space between the pieces. (Use two baking sheets if you need to).
• Bake for 20 minutes, then drizzle with the maple syrup, toss, and return to the oven for another 15 to 20 minutes, until the wedges are deeply brown on both sides.
• Once you've tossed the potatoes, place the bacon on an unlined sheet pan. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until crisp and cooked through. Place on a paper towel to drain (pour fat from the sheet pan into a jar and store in your refrigerator to use later, or discard), then chop into 1/2-inch pieces and toss with sweet potato wedges and the remaining teaspoon maple syrup. Garnish with flaky salt and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high heat.
• Place the wedges in a large bowl and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Place on the grill, cooking on all sides until cooked through, about 10 minutes total. Remove and drizzle or brush with a bit of maple butter, sprinkle with salt and parsley to finish.
• In a bowl, blend the butter, maple syrup and allspice together until light and smooth. Refrigerate and use as a spread or melt and drizzle over pancakes, grilled sweet potatoes or popcorn.

Steps:

• Brush the potato wedges with oil and season with rub, salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, until nicely marked.
• Whisk the syrup with the mustard. Brush the potatoes with the glaze and turn a few times to caramelize.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Toss the sweet potato chunks, olive oil, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl, and spread the sweet potatoes out onto a large rimmed baking sheet.

• Pour the maple syrup into the hot skillet with the thyme, and bring to a rolling boil. Boil the syrup until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Place the roasted sweet potatoes and onion-bacon mixture into the skillet, and stir to coat the vegetables with maple glaze. Transfer to a serving dish.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Poke each sweet potato several times with fork. Place on microwavable plate. Microwave uncovered on High 5 minutes. Cool 5 minutes.
• Using serrated knife, cut sweet potatoes crosswise into 1/8-inch slices, leaving bottom 1/4 to 1/2 inch intact. Place sweet potatoes in baking dish. Brush potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the melted butter. Sprinkle with salt.
• Bake 50 to 65 minutes or until completely tender. Brush with remaining tablespoon melted butter. Brush sweet potatoes with maple syrup. Top with bacon and thyme.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Place potato wedges in a 9" x 13" baking pan.
• Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle remaining ingredients over potatoes. Toss to combine thoroughly and spread out into one layer.
• Roast for 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender and outsides are slightly crisp. For crispier potatoes, roast for an additional 10 minutes or until preferred texture is reached.
• With a spatula, gently loosen bottoms of potatoes from baking pan and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Oil 2 large rimmed baking sheets with 1 tablespoon oil each. Combine sweet potatoes and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in large bowl; toss. Divide sweet potatoes between baking sheets, spreading evenly. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast until almost tender, turning occasionally with metal spatula, about 35 minutes. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand uncovered at room temperature.)
• Drizzle maple syrup over sweet potatoes and toss to coat. Roast until sweet potatoes are tender and syrup is reduced to glaze and coats sweet potatoes, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven; scatter butter cubes over sweet potatoes and let stand until melted. Season to taste with salt and generous amount of cracked pepper.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Slice each sweet potato in half lengthwise, and slice each half crosswise into 1-inch-thick half-moons.
• Melt butter in a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes; toss to coat evenly. Add maple syrup; toss potatoes to coat, and bring to a boil.
• Transfer skillet to oven; cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden, well glazed, and tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven, and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnished with thyme.
