ROASTED WHOLE SWEET POTATOES WITH MAPLE GINGER TOPPING



Roasted Whole Sweet Potatoes With Maple Ginger Topping image

Adapted from Southern Living magazine. I used to eat a version of these at a steakhouse in Louisiana and was happy to find a recipe that comes very close. I added my own additions to the recipe to make it come closer to what the restaurant served. You may use light sour cream, reduced sodium salt,reduced calorie margarine, and sugar free maple syrup if necessary - I have made these both ways with success. Elegant enough to serve to dinner guests, and recipe doubles easily.

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium whole sweet potatoes, scrubbed clean
1/2 cup sour cream (light or regular)
2 tablespoons real maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted (I also like candied nuts)
4 teaspoons butter or 4 teaspoons margarine, to taste (optional)
4 teaspoons brown sugar or 4 teaspoons cinnamon sugar, garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Poke each potato several times with a fork to pierce the skin.
  • Set onto a foil lined baking sheet.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 375 F for 1 hour or until potatoes are very tender.
  • Meanwhile, mix together the sour cream, syrup, salt,& cinnamon.
  • When potatoes are ready, slice them open, fluff the middles with a fork a bit, and top with a pat of butter (about 1 tsp or so each), a dollop of the topping, a sprinkling of the nuts, and if desired, a light sprinkling of brown sugar (or just dust with a litle extra cinnamon or cinnamon sugar).

This recipe is quick because you cook the potatoes in the microwave and then finish them in the oven. The unique thing about this is putting garlic and onion powder on the skin of the potato to give the skin great flavor. The inside is nice and creamy while the outside is crispy and flavorful. I make these once a week.

4 small yukon gold potatoes, unpeeled
1 -2 teaspoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Wash the potatoes but do not peel them.

  • Put the potatoes on a microwavable plate and put them in the microwave for 6 or more minutes(depending on the size) until they are done all the way through and a knife can be inserted easily.
  • Remove the potatoes(be careful they are hot)and coat the skin with the olive oil.
  • Next,generously, put salt, pepper,the garlic powder and the onion powder all over the skin. (I never use exact amounts, just put as much as you want. I like a lot of the powders!).
  • Put the potatoes directly on the rack of the oven for about 5- 10 minutes turning once. The skin will get nice and crisp.
  • Remove the potatoes and enjoy. You may want a little butter on the potato.

Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Ginger Snap Topping image

All I can say is "YUM". The roasted sweet potatoes give this "casserole" a much richer taste than boiling. The spices and the ginger snaps make this a recipe worth sharing
