To bake them, all you need are the sweet potatoes, a baking sheet, and an oven, of course. They take about 45 minutes of hands-off cooking. Once they're tender, split them and serve with our maple sour cream. Ingredients 4 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed ½ cup sour cream 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup Directions Preheat oven to 450 degrees; line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. With a fork, pierce sweet potatoes all over; arrange on sheet. Bake until tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Cut a deep slit in each sweet potato; push ends together to open. In a small bowl, stir together sour cream and maple syrup; dollop on top of sweet potatoes. Print
