Elevate your dinner with Baked Sweet Potatoes drizzled in Smoked Honey Butter. The creamy, caramelized sweetness harmonizes beautifully with a hint of smokiness—perfect for any gathering.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons smoked honey
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Step 2: Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly and poke several holes in each potato with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking.
  3. Step 3: Place the sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  4. Step 4: While the sweet potatoes are baking, prepare the smoked honey butter by combining the softened butter, smoked honey, sea salt, and ground cinnamon in a bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
  5. Step 5: Once the sweet potatoes are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Cut a slit down the center of each potato and fluff the insides with a fork. Top with generous dollops of the smoked honey butter and sprinkle with freshly cracked black pepper before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store leftover baked sweet potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, simply place the sweet potatoes in a microwave-safe dish and heat on medium power until warmed through, about 2-3 minutes, then top with additional smoked honey butter if desired.
  • These sweet potatoes pair wonderfully with a side of sautéed greens or a fresh salad for a balanced meal, and they make a delightful addition to a holiday spread.
  • For an extra flavor boost, try adding a pinch of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the smoked honey butter for a sweet and spicy kick!
