Pomegranate Sweet Potatoes image

I don't like sweet potatoes, but this is good tasting and almost good for you. I love the convenience of plastic wrapped sweet potatoes that cook in the microwave for 4 minutes. Baking your own would work too.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 sweet potatoes
½ cup pomegranate juice
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ cup cold butter, cut into tablespoon-sized pieces

Steps:

  • Wrap the sweet potatoes with plastic wrap, and place into the microwave. Cook on High until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 4 minutes, depending on the microwave. Unwrap the potatoes, and refrigerate until cool enough to handle.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a small baking dish.
  • Bring the pomegranate juice, water, vinegar, sugar, and cinnamon to a simmer in a small saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut into large cubes; place into the prepared baking dish, and dot with the cubed butter. Pour the pomegranate sauce evenly overtop.
  • Bake in preheated oven 30 minutes until the pomegranate sauce has thickened into a glaze. Gently stir the potatoes occasionally as they bake to coat them in the glaze.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my potatoes didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I'll try baking them at a higher temperature next time.

These potatoes were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They're definitely a good option for a kid-friendly side dish.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but these were actually really good! The pomegranate sauce added a nice tanginess that balanced out the sweetness of the potatoes.

This recipe was easy to follow and the results were delicious! The potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the pomegranate sauce was the perfect finishing touch.

These pomegranate sweet potatoes were a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! The combination of sweet and tangy was perfect, and the potatoes were cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
