    I like to slice them up, bake them in the oven and then drizzle some honey on top.

    French fries are tasty, too!

    My favourite though is boiling them with plums, apricots (or plumcots), draining, then mashing into a puree with cinnamon and nutmeg, then throwing it back in the oven to brown up. Soooo tasty! Like healthy, crustless pumpkin pie.

    I was thinking about this last night tooooo. I really want to make a healthy sweet potato fry cause they are my favorite.
    I think I'm going to bake them for 10-15 minutes then keep an eye on them while I broil them for a few minutes ( just to get a super crispy outside)
    salt and a little bit of olive oil before hand. Not forgetting to keep the skins on of course!

    My family loves baked sweet potatoe fries. Peel, slice, spray with a little olive oil and toss with cinnamon, salt and pepper. Bake at 400 and turn a couple times.

    i make sweet potato hash: peel and large dice 2 sweet potatoes and one onion, toss with 1T of olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. bake in the oven at 400 for 15-20 minutes, shaking the pan halfway to keep from sticking.

    it's tasty as a side dish, or i top it with a sunny side up egg!

    A lighter Thanksgiving version for the crockpot. Betty Crocker .... I think.

    Peel & cube sweet potatoes. Place in a crockpot. Add unsweetened applesauce mixed with brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon.
    Cook on high (4 hours). Serve with a slotted spoon - most of the sauce drains off.
