Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Prick the sweet potatoes: Before baking, prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork. This will help them to cook more evenly.
  • Bake at a high temperature: Bake the sweet potatoes at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) for a shorter amount of time. This will help to caramelize the sugars in the sweet potatoes and give them a delicious flavor.
  • Let the sweet potatoes cool: Once the sweet potatoes are baked, let them cool for a few minutes before handling them. This will help to prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Store the sweet potatoes properly: Store the sweet potatoes in a cool, dark place for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the sweet potatoes for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Make-ahead sweet potatoes are a delicious and convenient side dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. With a little planning, you can easily make-ahead sweet potatoes that will save you time and energy during the week.
