    I wrap each one in aluminum foil, poke some holes in them and into a 400 degree oven. Takes about 45 min to an hour, but when they are soft, I take them out. I let them cool for a while, cut them up and measure each one and re-wrap into aluminum foil and with a marker write how many ounces each one is. I love sweet potatoes and they are very good for you.

    fries, so easy
    cut into fry size strips, toss in some olive oil, salt and paprika, bake at 425 for about 30 min, turning every 5 min or so, prerferably on parchment paper, as they burn fast, just keep an eye on them , if you can cut them and soak in ice water for 30 minutes prior to baking and dry completely.

    I slice mine and cook with a little coconut oil--it's better at high heat than EVOO. Tastes like butter, too.

    I start by putting a cookie sheet in the oven to preheat.
    I then peel my sweet potato then slice into rounds 1/4" to 3/8" thick.
    Give the pan a light spray with Pam.
    Place the rounds on the pan.
    If I am seasoning the potatoes I give the top a light spray of Pam the add the seasonings.
    My favorites are paprika, cumin, and cayanne or on spicy nights ground habanero.
    Cook until lightly browned and don't forget to make extra plain rounds for your dogs (they love them).
