Hasselback Sweet Potatoes
Hasselback sweet potatoes are tender, sliced sweet potatoes that spread in the oven giving you buttery individual pieces and delicious flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato
- toppings of choice (see tips above)
Instructions
- First, preheat the oven to 400℉.
- Next, you want to find something to stick on the sides of the potatoes to keep you from cutting all the way through. Then, slice the potatoes about ¼ in slices leaving the sweet potato unsliced through the bottom. This will create the classic hasselback spread, later.
- Now, place the cut sweet potato in aluminum foil. Pour olive oil or any cooking oil over the top. About a tablespoon or two. You do not need to make sure each slice has oil going on it.
- Then, wrap the sweet potato into the foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- After that time is up, remove from the oven and do not open the foil. Allow the sweet potato to sit for about 15-20 minutes while it cools and finishes cooking.
- Lastly, unwrap the hasselback sweet potato and carefully transfer to a plate. Pour on melted butter, salt and pepper and enjoy. Or any topping of your choice.
