Sweet potatos are delicious on their own, but there are tons of various things one can do with them. Similar to their straight-edged cousin—the potato—sweet potatoes are just as versatile when it comes to how well they complement other foods. Whether you’re looking to impress friends and family, or simply want to enjoy a tasty snack for yourself, here are some of the most popular sweet potato recipes around!

Sweet Potato Fries

Perfect as a side dish, with a roast, grilled vegetables, or burger, sweet potato fries are delicious to eat and easy to make. Just chop your sweet potato into thin chunks and cover them in olive oil. You don’t even need to take the skin off, but make sure you wash them first. Season with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme, and bake in the oven for 20 minutes at 350F.

Grilled Sweet Potato with Herb Sauce

Simply cut your sweet potato into chunks and drizzle in olive oil. Add salt, pepper, and rosemary, and place them under the grill for 20 minutes. The herbs and oil will seep elegantly into the potato, leaving you with a tasty, crispy treat. If you want to get fancy, serve in a creamy rosemary sauce.

Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Root Vegetables

A warming treat in the winter months, this dish will leave you feeling happy and comfortable. Chop up your sweet potato with a variety of root vegetables, such as carrots and turnips. Mix the vegetables together on a baking tray. If you prefer, you can also add some red onion and peppers for a little extra kick. Roast together in the oven for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

Sweet potatoes are a dinner go-to for us. These flavorful and versatile tubers can be filled with a number of toppings or even stuffed to make a meal out of them. Our favorite way to prepare sweet potatoes is by simply baking them in the oven and it really isn’t too difficult to do so if you follow just a few instructions. Let’s learn!

Ingredients:

  • Sweet potatoes
  • Olive oil
  • Butter
  • Salt

Instructions:

  1. Start off by lining an oven-safe pan with aluminum foil. You’ll want to bake the sweet potatoes on a pan lined with foil because they are super juicy and will likely leak fluid.
  2. Preheat your oven to 425 F.
  3. Next, take the sweet potatoes and wash them thoroughly with a scrubbing brush under cold water. If you plan on eating the delicious skins, it’s important that they be cleaned and free of any sort of dirt or grime.
  4. After this, take a fork and poke several holes in all of the potatoes. This is to allow heat and moisture to escape, as if you don’t, the potatoes can actually explode in the oven.
  5. Place the potatoes on the foil-lined pan and bake for about 45 minutes to one hour, or until the potatoes are soft throughout. You can check this with a fork.
  6. Split open, add a pat of butter onto each side, and season with salt. Enjoy!

While sweet potatoes are great any time of year, they’re even more popular once fall rolls around. Sweet potatoes taste amazing in pies, casseroles, and mashed, and to get them ready for your dishes, you have to know how to boil them. The first thing to look out for is choosing sweet potatoes that are small to medium size and that have smooth skin and are firm and free of soft spots. Now that you know the basics, here’s your step-by-step guide to boiling potatoes.

For your Thanksgiving dinner consideration: Brown Butter Whipped Sweet Potatoes. You're welcome. 😉⁠ (PS – head up to my Insta Stories to see my quick tip for cleaning your food processor blade when making these!)⁠ 🍠⁠ Hit SAVE to keep the full recipe, below, before it's published on the blog!⁠ ⬇⁠ INGREDIENTS⁠ 4 pounds sweet potatoes, scrubbed⁠ 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon-sized pats⁠ 3/4 to 1 cup heavy cream, heated⁠ 1 to 2 tablespoons brown sugar or maple syrup (optional)⁠ salt and pepper, to taste⁠ ⁠ INSTRUCTIONS⁠ ⁠ 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet. Use a fork to pierce sweet potatoes all over. Bake, turning once, until soft. (Time will depend on the size of your sweet potatoes. Mine took a little over an hour today. Smaller potatoes have taken me as little as 30-40 minutes.)⁠ ⁠ 2. When the potatoes are almost finished baking, melt butter over medium heat in a small heavy-bottomed skillet. Choose a skillet that's light in color (stainless or white/ivory enameled) so you can monitor the color of the butter as it browns. As foaming subsides, continue cooking, swirling the pan frequently, until the milk solids are golden brown and the butter has a nutty aroma. (Watch it closely! It can burn quickly.)⁠ ⁠ 3. Immediately pour brown butter into a bowl, leaving behind any very dark solids in the pan. ⁠ 4. Scoop flesh from potatoes (you should have 6 cups worth) and discard skins. Place in the bowl of a food processor and pulse for about 10 seconds, until the potatoes are starting to look smooth.⁠ ⁠ 5. Add brown butter, 3/4 cup cream, and sugar or maple syrup (if using). Process for about 5-10 seconds until very smooth. Add additional cream, if needed. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm.⁠ ⁠ *A note on the sugar: I really wanted the beautiful flavor of the sweet potatoes and brown butter to come through in this recipe, so I've made additional sweetening agents optional . Many sweet potatoes are sweet enough on their own; others need a little boost. Taste yours before including sugar and add it in to your preferences.⁠

Step 1: Prep Sweet Potaotes

Start by washing the sweet potatoes by thoroughly scrubbing them with a clean produce brush and rinse them with cold water. Peel the sweet potatoes with a paring knife or vegetable peeler. With a sharp knife, cut off any woody portions and the ends. Cut the potatoes into bite-size cubes, making sure the pieces are about the same size.

Step 2: Boil Sweet Potatoes

In a saucepan or Dutch oven, add enough cold water to cover the potatoes and sprinkle with salt. Bring to a boil and cover them until they’re tender. You should be able to easily pierce the sweet potatoes with a knife or fork.

Step 3: Drain and Use

Remove the lid and carefully pour the sweet potatoes into a colander to drain them. Set the potatoes aside to cool or run cold water over them if you’re not using them right away. If you want to make an easy side dish, toss the potatoes with butter, salt, and pepper or you can use them in quesadillas, pot pies, or casseroles.

People nowadays are looking to other alternatives to bread for many reasons. Whether you have an allergy, a specific diet, or looking to incorporate more vegetables into your daily routine, swapping out bread for sweet potatoes is a great way to start! The base of these toasts are just flat, thin pieces of sweet potatoes roasted in the oven for a few minutes to cook through, but the possibilities for toppings are endless! Try some of these out next time you want to get creative with breakfast.

Hummus

For a Mediterranean style breakfast, spread hummus and a drizzle of olive oil on top of your sweet potato. Finish with cucumbers, olives, and tomatoes, and you have the perfect balance of savory, salty, and juicy!

Peanut Butter

To change up a classic combination, spread some peanut butter onto your toast for a fun and sweeter breakfast. Top with banana slices and dried fruit, maybe even a little honey if you really want something decadent.

Avocado

This is the ultimate avocado toast. Mash up an avocado hit it with some lemon juice and salt, and you have an incredible spread for your toast. Top with whatever veggies or greens you have on hand and you’re ready to eat!

Sweet potatos are delicious on their own, but there are tons of various things one can do with them. Similar to their straight-edged cousin—the potato—sweet potatoes are just as versatile when it comes to how well they complement other foods. Whether you’re looking to impress friends and family, or simply want to enjoy a tasty snack for yourself, here are some of the most popular sweet potato recipes around!

Sweet Potato Fries

Perfect as a side dish, with a roast, grilled vegetables, or burger, sweet potato fries are delicious to eat and easy to make. Just chop your sweet potato into thin chunks and cover them in olive oil. You don’t even need to take the skin off, but make sure you wash them first. Season with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme, and bake in the oven for 20 minutes at 350F.

Grilled Sweet Potato with Herb Sauce

Simply cut your sweet potato into chunks and drizzle in olive oil. Add salt, pepper, and rosemary, and place them under the grill for 20 minutes. The herbs and oil will seep elegantly into the potato, leaving you with a tasty, crispy treat. If you want to get fancy, serve in a creamy rosemary sauce.

Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Root Vegetables

A warming treat in the winter months, this dish will leave you feeling happy and comfortable. Chop up your sweet potato with a variety of root vegetables, such as carrots and turnips. Mix the vegetables together on a baking tray. If you prefer, you can also add some red onion and peppers for a little extra kick. Roast together in the oven for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

Sweet potatoes are a dinner go-to for us. These flavorful and versatile tubers can be filled with a number of toppings or even stuffed to make a meal out of them. Our favorite way to prepare sweet potatoes is by simply baking them in the oven and it really isn’t too difficult to do so if you follow just a few instructions. Let’s learn!

Ingredients:

  • Sweet potatoes
  • Olive oil
  • Butter
  • Salt

Instructions:

  1. Start off by lining an oven-safe pan with aluminum foil. You’ll want to bake the sweet potatoes on a pan lined with foil because they are super juicy and will likely leak fluid.
  2. Preheat your oven to 425 F.
  3. Next, take the sweet potatoes and wash them thoroughly with a scrubbing brush under cold water. If you plan on eating the delicious skins, it’s important that they be cleaned and free of any sort of dirt or grime.
  4. After this, take a fork and poke several holes in all of the potatoes. This is to allow heat and moisture to escape, as if you don’t, the potatoes can actually explode in the oven.
  5. Place the potatoes on the foil-lined pan and bake for about 45 minutes to one hour, or until the potatoes are soft throughout. You can check this with a fork.
  6. Split open, add a pat of butter onto each side, and season with salt. Enjoy!

While sweet potatoes are great any time of year, they’re even more popular once fall rolls around. Sweet potatoes taste amazing in pies, casseroles, and mashed, and to get them ready for your dishes, you have to know how to boil them. The first thing to look out for is choosing sweet potatoes that are small to medium size and that have smooth skin and are firm and free of soft spots. Now that you know the basics, here’s your step-by-step guide to boiling potatoes.

For your Thanksgiving dinner consideration: Brown Butter Whipped Sweet Potatoes. You're welcome. 😉⁠ (PS – head up to my Insta Stories to see my quick tip for cleaning your food processor blade when making these!)⁠ 🍠⁠ Hit SAVE to keep the full recipe, below, before it's published on the blog!⁠ ⬇⁠ INGREDIENTS⁠ 4 pounds sweet potatoes, scrubbed⁠ 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into tablespoon-sized pats⁠ 3/4 to 1 cup heavy cream, heated⁠ 1 to 2 tablespoons brown sugar or maple syrup (optional)⁠ salt and pepper, to taste⁠ ⁠ INSTRUCTIONS⁠ ⁠ 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet. Use a fork to pierce sweet potatoes all over. Bake, turning once, until soft. (Time will depend on the size of your sweet potatoes. Mine took a little over an hour today. Smaller potatoes have taken me as little as 30-40 minutes.)⁠ ⁠ 2. When the potatoes are almost finished baking, melt butter over medium heat in a small heavy-bottomed skillet. Choose a skillet that's light in color (stainless or white/ivory enameled) so you can monitor the color of the butter as it browns. As foaming subsides, continue cooking, swirling the pan frequently, until the milk solids are golden brown and the butter has a nutty aroma. (Watch it closely! It can burn quickly.)⁠ ⁠ 3. Immediately pour brown butter into a bowl, leaving behind any very dark solids in the pan. ⁠ 4. Scoop flesh from potatoes (you should have 6 cups worth) and discard skins. Place in the bowl of a food processor and pulse for about 10 seconds, until the potatoes are starting to look smooth.⁠ ⁠ 5. Add brown butter, 3/4 cup cream, and sugar or maple syrup (if using). Process for about 5-10 seconds until very smooth. Add additional cream, if needed. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm.⁠ ⁠ *A note on the sugar: I really wanted the beautiful flavor of the sweet potatoes and brown butter to come through in this recipe, so I've made additional sweetening agents optional . Many sweet potatoes are sweet enough on their own; others need a little boost. Taste yours before including sugar and add it in to your preferences.⁠

Step 1: Prep Sweet Potaotes

Start by washing the sweet potatoes by thoroughly scrubbing them with a clean produce brush and rinse them with cold water. Peel the sweet potatoes with a paring knife or vegetable peeler. With a sharp knife, cut off any woody portions and the ends. Cut the potatoes into bite-size cubes, making sure the pieces are about the same size.

Step 2: Boil Sweet Potatoes

In a saucepan or Dutch oven, add enough cold water to cover the potatoes and sprinkle with salt. Bring to a boil and cover them until they’re tender. You should be able to easily pierce the sweet potatoes with a knife or fork.

Step 3: Drain and Use

Remove the lid and carefully pour the sweet potatoes into a colander to drain them. Set the potatoes aside to cool or run cold water over them if you’re not using them right away. If you want to make an easy side dish, toss the potatoes with butter, salt, and pepper or you can use them in quesadillas, pot pies, or casseroles.

People nowadays are looking to other alternatives to bread for many reasons. Whether you have an allergy, a specific diet, or looking to incorporate more vegetables into your daily routine, swapping out bread for sweet potatoes is a great way to start! The base of these toasts are just flat, thin pieces of sweet potatoes roasted in the oven for a few minutes to cook through, but the possibilities for toppings are endless! Try some of these out next time you want to get creative with breakfast.

Hummus

For a Mediterranean style breakfast, spread hummus and a drizzle of olive oil on top of your sweet potato. Finish with cucumbers, olives, and tomatoes, and you have the perfect balance of savory, salty, and juicy!

Peanut Butter

To change up a classic combination, spread some peanut butter onto your toast for a fun and sweeter breakfast. Top with banana slices and dried fruit, maybe even a little honey if you really want something decadent.

Avocado

This is the ultimate avocado toast. Mash up an avocado hit it with some lemon juice and salt, and you have an incredible spread for your toast. Top with whatever veggies or greens you have on hand and you’re ready to eat!
