Baked Sweet Potato 🍠

Sweet potatoes with orange flesh are one of the top sources of beta-carotene (a precursor to vitamin A). Here is a simple way to enjoy sweet potatoes!

Serves: 1

Prep time: 2 minutes

Baking time: 20 minutes

Effort: Super-easy

You will need:

✅ 1 sweet potato (orange colour), washed and unpeeled

✅ 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

Method:

  • Cut sweet potato into thin slices. Try to be consistent with how thin you slice them, so they bake evenly. Here I have used a slicer.

  • Toss the sweet potato slices with olive oil.

  • Place the sweet potato slices across a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes in the oven at 190ºC.

Optional;

  • Flip the sweet potato slices about halfway through, depending on the thickness or until golden brown.

Enjoy! 🍠
