Servings: 6
Ingredients: 6 medium sweet potatoes
4 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons ghee, grass fed butter or coconut oil (room temperature)
4 ounces coconut milk
Zest of 1 orange
1 tbsp fresh or dried rosemary
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Instructions: Preheat oven to 375 F.
Wash and pat dry sweet potatoes.
Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and bake until soft, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and let cool enough to handle.
Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out the insides into a large mixing bowl. Place the skins back on the tray.
Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl with the sweet potatoes and mix well with a fork.
Add an equal amount of the filling back to each of the sweet potato skins. Bake for 10 minutes. Place the oven on broil until a nice, brown crust forms on the sweet potatoes (2-3 minutes).
Remove from oven and serve warm.
Notes: Rosemary is one of my favorite spices to use in the fall and winter.
This dish would be great for a holiday potluck or as a side dish for your Christmas ham or turkey.
