Peel, dice, and coat your sweet potatoes in a rich brown sugar glaze, then bake them uncovered in a cast-iron skillet for maximum caramelization. 😋🍳
🛒 Ingredients
• 3 sweet potatoes 🍠
• ½ cup brown sugar 🤎
• ⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted 🧈
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🍦
• 2 tablespoons water 💧
• Pinch of salt 🧂
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prep the heat: Preheat your oven to 350°F 🌡️
2. Prep the potatoes: Wash, peel, and dice your 3 sweet potatoes into somewhat equal bite-sized pieces🔪🍠
3. Make the sauce: In your cast-iron skillet (or another oven-safe dish), whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, water, and a pinch of salt until smooth. 🥣✨
4. Coat the potatoes: Toss the diced sweet potatoes directly into the sauce inside the skillet, stirring until every cube is beautifully coated. 🪵
5. Bake uncovered: Place the skillet directly into the oven without any cover. Bake for about 40–45 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender. 🪵🔥
6. Stir for the glaze: Make sure to take the skillet out to stir every 20 minutes. This keeps the potatoes coated in the bubbling syrup and prevents the edges from burning as the sauce thickens into a glossy glaze! 🔄⏰
💡 Note: This recipe can easily be made in a larger batch! You can also use local Walker Farm’s North Fort Myers honey instead if you want to avoid making the sauce from scratch. 🍯🐝
