OVEN-BAKED SWEET POTATOES
This easy recipe is a great way to get sweet potatoes on the table at dinnertime. You're likely to have all the ingredients in your pantry (just four, plus the sweet potatoes!), and they come together with very little active time. It's a reliable weeknight recipe and one that you'll be tempted to break out when sweet potatoes are in peak season-as well as all year round. When selecting the sweet potatoes to use in this recipe, it's important to choose sweet potatoes that are of similar sizes and shapes. This will ensure that they all cook at the same rate. With some small potatoes and some large ones, you're likely to burn the little ones while the bigger ones will come out uncooked in the middle. Also, very round potatoes (those shaped like baseballs) will take longer to cook than potatoes that are more elongated in shape. Enjoy this easy baked sweet potato recipe, and feel free to personalize the toppings to your preferences. The SL Test Kitchen recommends topping the sweet potatoes with chopped chicken or leftover chili to make a satisfying main dish.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Liberally prick sweet potatoes all over using a fork. Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet. Bake in preheated oven until very tender, 45 to 55 minutes. Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of each sweet potato. Pull each sweet potato open, and fluff using a fork. Top evenly with butter pieces; sprinkle with sugar, salt, and pepper.
BAKED SWEET POTATOES
Sweet potatoes are in the same family as other potatoes but cooking them requires a different approach to get the fluffy interior and sweet caramelized flavor we all love. After testing several techniques-wrapping in foil, pricking and not pricking, using a roasting pan-we found the following method delivered on all fronts, with minimal effort. Pricking with a fork allows steam to release and the potato flesh to separate from the skin, something that didn't always happen otherwise. Baking the potatoes on a wire rack nested in a baking sheet also helped the potatoes cook more evenly (and made cleaning up much easier). Lastly, allowing the potatoes to rest in the turned-off oven for 30 minutes after baking allowed the flavors to develop even further, though you can skip this step if you are short on time.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then set a wire rack inside the baking sheet.
- Prick each of the sweet potatoes 5 times with a fork and place on top of the prepared rack, keeping space between potatoes to allow heat to circulate. Bake the sweet potatoes until a paring knife can easily go through without resistance, about 1 hour. Turn the oven off and let the potatoes rest inside for 30 minutes more. Remove from the oven and cut each potato in half lengthwise. Season with salt and pepper and top with butter if using.
