Sweet Potatoes With Bacon, Twice Baked - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
3 large sweet potatoes
1/2 cup low-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/4 cup bacon, cooked, crumbled (I use Hormel's Real Bacon Pieces)
1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
Preparation
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Wash the sweet potatoes & spray them with a nonstick vegetable spray, then place on a baking sheet & bake for 1 hour or until done.
Cool the potatoes a bit, then cut them in half lengthwise & scoop out the pulp, leaving enough to make a sturdy shell.
In a mixing bowl, combine the potato pulp, sour cream, butter, salt, egg, pepper & sugar, mashing & mixing to combine well.
Add the crumbled bacon & mix well, then fill the potato shells with the mixture. If using the paprika, sprinkle that on top.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until heated through, then serve & enjoy!
