    Cheesy Sweet Potatoes

    Baked Sweet Potatoes with Green Onions

    Soft, velvety, jacket sweet potatoes topped with Camembert and green onions. Only a few ingredients, but so much flavor.

    These cheesy sweet potatoes are so nice, soft and creamy, you will just love that melting cheese on top and the crunch and freshness that the green onions bring.

    If you don't care about the potatoes having to be baked for about 45 minutes, than this is also a dish that won't give you a lot to do either.

    Just clean and prick the potatoes, slice the cheese and the green onions and you're done. Everything else takes place in the oven. One quick green salad and you have a delicious and healthy meal in front of you.

    Baked Sweet Potatoes with Green Onions

    How to bake sweet potatoes?

    • Preheat the oven. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
    • Make sure that the sweet potatoes have a similar size so that they are ready at the same time.
    • Wash and dry them very well.
    • Prick them all over with a fork.
    • Rub them with the olive oil and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
    • Bake for about 40-45 minutes or until cooked through, the baking time really depends on their size, so make sure to check, they should be very soft when done.

    How to make cheese jacket potatoes?

    • Carefully, split the baked sweet potatoes lengthwise in the middle. Keep in mind that they are very hot!
    • Scoop out some of the flesh, as much of it as possible without breaking the skin of the potatoes.
    • Mix the potato flesh with the butter and half of the green onions and stuff it back in the potatoes. Arrange the cheese slices on top, sprinkle with some more freshly ground black pepper.
    • Return to the baking tray and oven and bake for another 5 minutes or until the Camembert starts to melt.

    How to serve?

    • The jacket sweet potatoes should be served immediately.
    • Possible sides are a green salad with yogurt dressing, cucumber salad with vinaigrette, a simple white cabbage salad, roasted vegetables like broccoli or Brussels sprouts.

    Ingredients 

    • 2 medium sweet potatoes
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 1 tablespoon butter
    • 6 thick slices Camembert
    • 2-3 green onions
    • fine sea salt and pepper

    Instructions

    • Roast: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius/ 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes and prick them all over with a fork. Rub them with the oil, sprinkle with some salt and pepper, place on a baking tray and bake them for about 40-45 minutes or until cooked through. It might take a shorter or longer time to have them ready, it really depends on their size.
    • Slice: In the meantime, slice the cheese and chop the green onions thinly.
    • Stuff: When ready, take the sweet potatoes out of the oven and split them lengthwise in the middle. Carefully scoop out some of the flesh, as much of it as you can without hurting the exterior of the potatoes, mix this with the butter and half of the green onions and stuff it back in the potatoes.
    • Top and bake: Arrange the cheese slices on top, sprinkle with some more freshly ground black pepper and bake for another 5 minutes or until the Camembert starts to melt.
    • Serve: Scatter the remaining green onions on top, add some chopped parsley and serve with salad.

      Hmm, the sweet potatoes look delicious. I like them too, although my husband is not that keen on them.
      I can't wait to see what Easter recipes you are going to share. I'm curious how much they will differ from the ones I know. x

        I think the main idea for these recipes is the same, but every woman has its own interpretation of them! I hope you like the way my grandma cooked these recipes.

      Don't give up on those kiddos - they are bound to like sweet potatoes eventually! My 4 1/2 year old is just now coming around to them. (She liked them as a baby then didn't touch them much for a few years.) My 2 1/2 year old has been a huge fan since birth. He will eat as many roasted sweet potatoes as I can give him. And I am a HUGE fan of any potato, any which way. Know I will love this version - what a great combination of flavors!

        Thank you, Kathryn. I do hope that if I put sweet potatoes on the table on a regular basis, they will eventually get used to the idea and the taste and start like them someday...

      I bake sweet potatoes all the time but never had it with cheese! It looks very mouthwateringly good! I really miss meat at all when I eat satisfying dishes like this.

      I love this post!! Looks delicious over there. It’s so awesome that you cure your own bacon. This is a very tiny detail, but I love the towel under the skillet. Just the perfect amount of the perfect towel peeking out!! Thanks
