We enjoy Hasselback Potatoes, so I decided to try making Hasselback Sweet Potatoes. Instead of going with savory herbs, I combined butter, honey, cinnamon, and ginger. And they were amazingly delicious! My kids have asked me to serve these for Thanksgiving this year. I love it when my kids ask me to cook vegetables.
The sweet potatoes were long so I cut them in half. This allowed them to fit in the pan better, but they didn’t fan out as much as I would have liked. Next time I will use short, fat sweet potatoes, so I get a more dramatic presentation.
