Slow Cooked Sweet Potatoes Recipes

SLOW COOKER SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Toss the sweet potatoes with the cornstarch in a bowl to coat well. Add the mixture to a slow cooker and dot with the butter. Sprinkle over the brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice and cayenne. Pour in the vanilla, orange juice and 1/4 cup water. Season with salt. Place the lid on the slow cooker and cook on low, stirring once or twice, until the potatoes are tender, about 3 hours.
• Toss the potatoes once more and transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle with the walnuts and parsley and serve.

SLOW COOKER SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Lightly grease a slow cooker.
• In a large bowl, blend sweet potatoes, 1/3 cup butter, white sugar and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Beat in orange juice, eggs and milk. Transfer this mixture to the prepared slow cooker.
• In a small bowl, combine pecans, 1/3 cup brown sugar, flour and 2 tablespoons butter. Spread the mixture over the sweet potatoes. Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours.

STUPENDOUS SLOW BAKED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Place rack in center of oven. Preheat to 350 degrees.
• Scrub sweet potatoes to remove any dirt. Place sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet or an oven-proof stone. Bake for one hour.
• Remove sweet potatoes from oven, flip them to the other side, and bake another hour.
• Once the second hour has passed, turn OFF the oven and keep the potatoes in the oven for another hour.
• This long baking time produces a very sweet sweet potato that is very easy to peel. They are almost carmelized. (Take a bite before you add the butter, it really doesn't need it).

SLOW-COOKER SPICED SWEET POTATOES WITH PECANS

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Stir together the dark brown sugar, cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Stir together the melted butter and vanilla extract in another small bowl.
• Toss the sweet potatoes with the cornstarch in a large mixing bowl. Put 1 layer of the sweet potatoes on the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker. Drizzle with a third of the butter mixture then sprinkle with a third of the brown sugar mixture. Repeat to make 2 more layers. (If there are not enough sweet potatoes to make a complete third layer, that is okay.)
• Cover the slow cooker and cook on low until the sweet potatoes are tender but not mushy, about 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, spread the pecans out on a baking sheet and bake until very golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool and finely chop.
• When the sweet potatoes are tender, gently stir in the orange juice. Transfer the potatoes to a shallow serving dish and allow to sit for 10 minutes (the sauce will thicken as it sits). Toss the potatoes in the sauce to coat, sprinkle with the chopped pecans and serve.

SLOW-COOKER PRALINE SWEET POTATOES

SLOW-BAKED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. Rub each potato all over with a scant 1/2 teaspoon lard. Cut parchment squares just large enough to wrap around each potato individually. Wrap potatoes, twisting ends in opposite directions to form a tight seal. Transfer to a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake until potatoes are very soft and collapsing, about 1 1/2 hours. Leave wrapped in parchment until ready to serve, then split each lengthwise, dollop with ham-ginger butter, and sprinkle with salt.
