    Jacket sweet potatoes stuffed with Camembert and green onions are a comforting, delicious way to enjoy baked sweet potatoes with cheese.

    baked sweet potatoes with cheese filling.

    These soft, velvetyย jacket sweet potatoesย are topped with Camembert and green onions. Although there are only a few ingredients, they pack a lot of flavor.

    These cheesy sweet potatoes are so soft and creamy. You will love the melting cheese on top and the crunch and freshness of the green onions.

    If you don't care about the potatoes being baked for about 45 minutes, this dish also offers little to do. 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 with yogurt dressing or vinaigrette, and you have a delicious and healthy meal.

    Baked Sweet Potatoes with Green Onions

    How to bake sweet potatoes?

    • Step #1: Prick the washed and dried tubers all over with a fork.
    • Step #2: Rub them with the olive oil and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.
    • Step #3: Bake them for about 40-45 minutes or until cooked through.

    How to make jacket sweet potatoes?

    • Step #1: Carefully split the baked sweet potatoes lengthwise in the middle. They are very hot!
    • Step #2: Scoop out as much of the flesh as possible without breaking the potatoes' skins.
    • Step #3: Mix the potato flesh with the butter and half of the green onions and stuff it back into the potatoes. Arrange the cheese slices on top and sprinkle with some more freshly ground black pepper.
    • Step #4:ย Return the jacket sweet potatoes baking tray to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes, or until the Camembert starts to melt.

    Tips

    Make sure the sweet potatoes are similar in size to be ready simultaneously.

    The baking time depends on their size, so make sure to check. They should be very soft when done.

    How to serve them?

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

      I love this post!! Looks delicious over there. Itโ€™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

      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...

      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.
