Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) and line your baking sheet or pan with aluminum foil if desired (for easy cleanup).
Place the cleaned sweet potatoes onto your prepared baking sheet and pierce the skin with a fork 5-6 times. Bake at 425°F (218°C) for 45-50 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
Remove from the oven and allow your baked sweet potatoes to cool slightly before cutting a slit down the top of the center of each potato to serve. Fluff the sweet potato, and serve with salt, pepper, and butter or your favorite toppings.
Notes
Optionally, you can coat the sweet potato skin with olive oil and season the whole sweet potato with salt & pepper.
For perfect oven baked sweet potatoes that are fluffy throughout, you may wish to rotate the pan 180 degrees after 25 minutes of cooking time.
