Steps:
- Place rack in center of oven. Preheat to 350 degrees.
- Scrub sweet potatoes to remove any dirt. Place sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet or an oven-proof stone. Bake for one hour.
- Remove sweet potatoes from oven, flip them to the other side, and bake another hour.
- Once the second hour has passed, turn OFF the oven and keep the potatoes in the oven for another hour.
- This long baking time produces a very sweet sweet potato that is very easy to peel. They are almost carmelized. (Take a bite before you add the butter, it really doesn't need it).

DIXIE BAKE SWEET POTATOES
Found this recipe in an old Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book from 1965. It is good warm out of the oven as a side dish or can be used as a dessert. Probably could be put in a pie shell and make a sweet potato pie. It is a favorite of our family.

SLOW-BAKED SWEET POTATOES
In this easy Thanksgiving side, jewel-toned sweet potatoes are roasted low and slow. This hands-off method makes them so tender they melt in your mouth, and the gentle oven temperature gives the natural sugars enough time to caramelize and deepen the flavor of the sweet potato. Serve them with this rich, zesty Country Ham-Ginger Butter to spread on top.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°. Rub each potato all over with a scant 1/2 teaspoon lard. Cut parchment squares just large enough to wrap around each potato individually. Wrap potatoes, twisting ends in opposite directions to form a tight seal. Transfer to a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.
- Bake until potatoes are very soft and collapsing, about 1 1/2 hours. Leave wrapped in parchment until ready to serve, then split each lengthwise, dollop with ham-ginger butter, and sprinkle with salt.
Tips:
- Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and smooth, without any blemishes or bruises. If possible choose small to medium size potatoes.
- Prick the sweet potatoes with a fork before baking to help them cook evenly.
- Rub the sweet potatoes with olive oil or butter before baking to help them brown and crisp.
- Bake the sweet potatoes at a high temperature (400°F or higher) for the first 30 minutes to help them caramelize.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue baking until the sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 1 hour total.
- Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before handling them.
Conclusion:
Slow-baked sweet potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. With a little planning, you can easily make slow-baked sweet potatoes that are sure to impress your family and friends.
