ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH HOT HONEY BROWNED BUTTER



Roasted Sweet Potatoes With Hot Honey Browned Butter image

Doubling down on sweet potatoes' sweetness by adding honey is like adding fuel to the fire, but the nuttiness from the browned butter, heat from the crushed red pepper flakes and bright acidity from the vinegar all work together to bring it back from the brink. This hot honey browned butter is also good on roasted winter squash, over plain oatmeal and - if we are being honest -probably over ice cream. But that's a different conversation.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 small to medium sweet potatoes (about 1½ pounds), scrubbed
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (3/4 stick)
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Poke sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place them all directly on the oven rack. Roast until they are very tender, with bits of sweet potato sugar caramelizing in the spots they've been poked, 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small pot over medium heat, swirling the pot just until the butter starts to bubble and brown, about 5 minutes. Add the honey, vinegar and red pepper flakes, swirling to combine (it will bubble up quite a bit), and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are out of the oven, slit them down the middle. Warm the browned butter mixture, and pour over the sweet potatoes. (Alternatively, scoop the flesh out of the skins and transfer to a bowl or serving dish, then drizzle with the browned butter sauce.) Generously sprinkle with flaky sea salt.

Categories     Bon Appétit     Fall     Thanksgiving     Vegetarian     Sweet Potato/Yam     Side     Butter     Honey     Lime     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Soy Free     Tree Nut Free

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 small sweet potatoes (about 3 lb. total), scrubbed, halved lengthwise
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Kosher salt
6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature
2 Tbsp. honey
3 Tbsp. hot sauce (such as Tapatío or Cholula)
¼ cup raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
1 Tbsp. ground coriander
Flaky sea salt
Lime wedges (for serving)

Steps:

  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°F. Place sweet potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with ¼ cup oil, and season with kosher salt. Turn to coat. Arrange cut side down and roast until tender (the tip of a knife should slide easily into flesh) and cut sides are browned, 25-30 minutes. Let sweet potatoes cool.
  • Meanwhile, smash together butter and honey in a small bowl with a fork until smooth. Add hot sauce a tablespoonful at a time, blending well after each addition. Season hot honey butter with kosher salt.
  • Cook pumpkin seeds and remaining ¼ cup oil in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until pumpkin seeds are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in coriander; season with kosher salt.
  • Arrange sweet potatoes on a platter and spread with hot honey butter. Sprinkle with sea salt and spoon pumpkin seed oil over. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.
  • Do Ahead: Hot honey butter can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before using.

Tips:

  • For perfectly roasted sweet potatoes, choose firm and evenly-shaped potatoes. Avoid any with blemishes or soft spots.
  • To save time, pierce the potatoes with a fork and microwave them for 5-6 minutes before roasting.
  • For crispy roasted sweet potatoes, toss them with a little olive oil and cornstarch before roasting.
  • To make the hot honey butter, use a good quality honey and butter. The hotter the honey, the spicier the butter will be.
  • If you don't have a pastry brush, you can use a spoon to baste the potatoes with the hot honey butter.
  • Roasted sweet potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Roasted sweet potatoes with hot honey browned butter is a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. The sweet potatoes are roasted until tender and slightly caramelized, and then tossed in a hot honey butter sauce. The result is a dish that is both sweet and savory, with a hint of spice. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
