You guys.
I need to come home ASAP.
Because I cannot. stop. eating. here.
Really.
I’ve already eaten ramen, sushi, tempura, udon and about a million dessert items in between.
This is all in one single day. It’s just not cute.
And upon my arrival, you know I’ll be prepping for Thanksgiving with these adorable little sweet potatoes.
To be fair.
These are super adorable. Yes.
But also dangerous.
Just remember: one potato per serving.
No matter how many additional marshmallows or butter topping you need.

Love this recipe!!
I stopped making sweet potato casserole because a lot of it would go to waste because I am the only one who eats it. I made 2 of these sweet potatoes today (one for today and one for tomorrow). They are so delicious!! I had a lot of stuff going into the oven so I used the “potato” button on my microwave and cooked them ahead of time. When everything else came out of the oven, I put the prepared potatoes under the broiler. They came out perfect!!!
I have yet to find a recipe that we do not like from you!!
Thank you!
Looks great, I’m from the UK, would you have these loaded sweet potatoes as a dessert or as a main alongside your turkey and other savouries at Thanksgiving?
This sounds and looks awesome! But I’m planning on using it for our Easter Sunday dinner tomorrow. 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
This was so good! Not too sweet. You can still taste the sweet potato, which is the best part.
10⭐’s…this was our first turkey ever and this recipe did not disappoint!!!❤ My heart filled with pride as our guests continually commented on the beautiful aroma filling up the neighborhood coming up to our door! Everyone was wow’ed at the beautiful color, aroma and flavor of this recipe including myself! This is a must have and will never make a turkey any other way! Thank you soo much for such an amazing recipe!!!
try adding See’s Candy Scotch Kiss to put it over the edge.
While these looked and sounded like a grain-free girl’s miracle …my 2 bath he’s would not crisp up. Not at a higher heat and not with more time. I followed the 1/4 inch thickness but no luck. I ended up mashing the mushy potatoes.
If your talking about chips, try cutting them at 1/8 inch. 1/4 is to thick for them to crisp nicely.
I love all things sweet potato, so was drawn to the photos and had thank you for sharing this in time for Thanksgiving!
This is a game changer!
I’m definitely going to try this!
Can’t get much better than a loaded sweet potato around the holidays! These look perfect with the toasted marshmallows.
These potatoes look like straight up Thanksgiving perfection!
