sweet potato wedges
One of our favorite ways to eat sweet potatoes! A great further result is if there are left-overs...I use them in my Sweet Potato Pie recipe (also posted)! (I found both recipes in Quick Cooking recipe books.)

I tend to be a purist when it comes to my sweet potatoes... a little pat of butter and I'm a happy camper. Well, this recipe has changed my tune! These delicious little wedges have a wonderful sweet flavor that's not too overwhelming. My daughter-in-law, Krissi (not one known to voluntarily eat sweet potatoes), couldn't put these down! We look forward to trying the leftovers in Cherie's pie recipe...

How To Make sweet potato wedges
-
Step 1Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 baking dish.
-
Step 2Peel, then cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise into halves. Then cut each of those halves lengthwise so you end up with quartered wedges.
-
Step 3Arrange them in the baking dish. Combine the butter, orange juice, salt and cinnamon; drizzle over the potatoes.
-
Step 4Cover with foil and bake for 55-60 minutes until fork tender. Spoon some of the sauce over them to serve!
-
Step 5If you have left-overs, then I love to use them in my Sweet Potato Pie recipe (also posted)!
