Baked Sweet Potato Recipe

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or parchment paper for easier cleanup.

Thoroughly rinse and scrub the potatoes then pat dry with a towel and poke holes all over with a fork.

Set potatoes on the prepared baking sheet leaving some space between potatoes and bake for 45 minutes, or until easily pierced with a knife or fork.

Cool for five minutes before cutting open and adding butter and chives, or your favorite toppings.
