Two-baked potatoes are the perfect dinner side. Usually containing butter and sour cream, the potato has a crispy skin and a creamy interior. Have you tried this with a sweet potato? Dual-baked sweet potatoes combine sweet potato sweetness with savory and complementary ingredients for a unique flavor.
4 sweet potatoes
¾ cup sour cream
3 tablespoons butter, plus more for topping
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup chopped pecans
1 tablespoon chopped chives
Ingredient
Direction
The oven should be preheated to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. To prepare the sweet potatoes, use a fork to make holes in them.
1
After placing the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet, bake them for forty-five to fifty minutes, or until a fork can be easily inserted into the center of the potato.
2
The potatoes should be allowed to cool for approximately fifteen minutes before the peel is removed and an oval is cut out of the top of each potato.
3
Make sure the oven is set to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Scoop out the flesh of the sweet potatoes and place it in a large bowl. Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise.
4
To the flesh of the sweet potato, add the sour cream, butter, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon, and stir everything together until it is completely incorporated.
5
Make sure to stuff the mixture into each potato. The stuffed potatoes should be placed back onto the baking sheet, and the baking time should be ten minutes.
6
Upon completion, garnish with chopped pecans and chives, and serve while still warm. Add additional butter if you so desire.
