Reviews
I’ve baked sweet potatoes with a lot of different methods. Look no further, this is easy and perfect.
Good
I didn’t use the butter in order to make these vegan. The soft texture of the sweet potato and the oil on the skin was enough to make these melty and flavorful. I love sugar, so plain brown sugar without butter was good enough for me.
Hubby likes these better than regular potatoes!
Love these, have had these for many years.
