Number Of Ingredients 5

3 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and quartered lengthwise
6 Tbsp butter, melted
6 Tbsp orange juice
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 tsp cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
  • 2. Peel, then cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise into halves. Then cut each of those halves lengthwise so you end up with quartered wedges.
  • 3. Arrange them in the baking dish. Combine the butter, orange juice, salt and cinnamon; drizzle over the potatoes.
  • 4. Cover with foil and bake for 55-60 minutes until fork tender. Spoon some of the sauce over them to serve!
  • 5. If you have left-overs, then I love to use them in my Sweet Potato Pie recipe (also posted)!
