Best 5 Sweet Potato Slices Recipes

CINNAMON SWEET POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Arrange sweet potato slices on the baking sheet. Brush with 1/2 the butter. Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl, and sprinkle 1/2 over the potatoes.
• Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Turn, brush with remaining butter, and sprinkle with remaining cinnamon and sugar. Continue baking 15 minutes, or until tender.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• In a small bowl whisk together the oil, butter and salt and pepper to taste.
• Arrange the potato slices not touching in rows on an oiled baking sheet.
• Brush slices with the oil mixture.
• Roast them in the oven on the upper third or middle layer of a pre heated 450 degree oven turning once.
• Bake for about 18-22 minutes or until golden crisp.
• Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt to taste.

CINNAMON-SUGAR GLAZED SWEET POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Peel potatoes and cut crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. In a large bowl toss potatoes with oil to coat and spread in one layer in shallow baking pans. Bake potatoes until just tender, about 20 minutes.
• In a small bowl stir together sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over potatoes. Bake potatoes until glazed and tender, about 5 minutes.

GRAMMA'S GLAZED CANDIED SWEET POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• Submerge potatoes in water. Bring to a boil & simmer until they are a cooked a little more than half way through. Check with a tooth pick.
• *** It is important to NOT overcook because they will continue to cook when simmering in the brown sugar glaze.
• When done boiling, pour off all the hot water and run cold water over them until they are cooled off. Do this as quickly as possible, running and changing the water until the potatoes are completely cold. This may take a few minutes. Drain. They can now rest for hours if need be.
• In an electric skillet, slowly melt butter until completely melted.
• Add enough light brown sugar to absorb all the butter.
• (I am not 100% of the amount listed above). Continue to use a low/medium heat until all the brown sugar melts and is no longer grainy. This can take up to an hour. You can let it bubble a bit around the edges but not too hard. Continually stirring w/ a spatula.
• In the mean time: peel your potatoes. I do this GENTLY with a paring knife.
• Slice thickly at least 3/4". If you cut them too thin, they will fall apart while cooking. Set aside in single layers.
• Once the sugar is ready & gooey, no longer grainy, place the slices, one by one, side by side, in the skillet. DO NOT move them around until ready to flip.
• When the edges of the slices are gathering a candy coating and darkening, flip them. The 2nd side will not take as long to cook.
• Gently lift out and place in a single layer on a warmed serving platter. I use a pie server to serve.

GRILLED SWEET POTATO SLICES

Steps:

• 1. Oil or butter both sides of the sweet potatoe slices. Set on the grill to get grill marks on both sides. Poke holes in aluminum foil. Oil the foil. Place foil on grill. Oil or butter the slices of sweet potato and place on the foil. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes. Turn over. Cook 10 - 15 minutes longer, they should be tender. (If using salt, add it after you flip potatoes over).
• 2. I likt to cut the potatoes on an angle to give them a pleasing shape. *** If you don't want the grill marks you can skip that part... but it is pleasing to look at.
