Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 60ml (4 tbsp) fat, such as butter or coconut oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.
  2. Prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork.
  3. Place the sweet potatoes directly onto the oven’s wire rack and bake for 45 minutes or until soft. Be sure to place a tray underneath to catch the syrup of the vegetables.
