Since sweet potatoes are in season, I have been making them daily for my kids. My 3 year old asks for “orange potatoes” with almost every meal.
The main 2 ingredients (sweet potatoes and coconut oil) are nutritional powerhouses, which makes me love them even more.
What you need:
- 1 large sweet potato
- 2 tablespoons of coconut oil (melted)
- salt & pepper or cinnamon & nutmeg or chili powder & cumin (the sky is the limit)
What to do:
Chop the sweet potato into bite size chunks
Next, douse sweet potatoes with coconut oil, salt and pepper. Just leave a smidge of coconut oil aside to grease the pan.
Spread them out on a baking sheet and place in a 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes. About half way through give them a flip. Since I am usually baking just one sweet potato, they fit nicely on a baking sheet in my toaster oven.
Keep an eye on them while baking, because every oven is different. Enjoy!
