Sliced Baked Sweet Potato

Your tip for this Friday is a new way to bake your sweet potato. I wish I would have made more than I did, because they ran out too quickly! The outside gets a little crispy and the inside is tender and delicious. If you have ghee, be sure to use it! It makes this recipe scrumptious.

Sweet Potato
Ghee, or clarified butter
Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to Taste
Paprika

Pre-Heat oven to 425 degrees. Wash sweet potatoes well. Slice potato as shown (3/4 of the way down)- be sure not to slice all the way through it. Place potatoes on a silpat baking sheet, or on parchment paper on a cooking sheet. Drizzle olive oil and ghee (melted) over top, letting it soak into the cuts. Add salt, pepper and paprika. Bake for 40 min, or until a fork goes easily into the sweet potato. Remove from oven, add additional ghee if needed. Enjoy!
