Equipment

  • Sheet tray
  • Baking dish
  • Medium pan
  • Whisk

Ingredients
  

  • 5 medium sweet potatoes I like to look for longer thinner ones, cleaned
  • 1 4oz stick unsalted butter
  • 6 fresh sage leaves*
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 inch fresh ginger finely grated
  • 2 Tbsp Crystal hot sauce or tabasco
  • 1 ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • Kosher salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  • Wrap sweet potatoes in foil and prick with a fork. Place on a sheet tray.
  • Roast until just tender. You don’t want these to be overly soft at this point, just fork tender, as we want to retain their shape. This should take around 35-45 minutes depending on the size of your potatoes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool until you can handle them. Reduce oven temp to 350ºF.
  • Once cool enough, peel skins off sweet potatoes and cut them into thick slices (about 1.5-2 inches). Place in a baking dish and set aside.
  • Next prepare the glaze. In a medium pan over medium low heat, add butter and melt. Once melted, toss in the sage.
  • Whisk butter continuously until the butter has browned. Keep an eye on it as this can happen quick!
  • Immediately remove butter from heat and add in maple syrup to stop the butter from continuing to brown. Remove sage leaves and set aside.
  • Add in ginger, hot sauce, salt and smoked paprika. Return glaze to heat and cook until bubbling and slightly thick, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Season potatoes with a touch of salt and pepper. Pour glaze over sweet potatoes. Bake, uncovered, 30 minutes. Broil the top to get some crispy charred parts, if desired.
  • Top with fried sage and serve!

Notes

*Make sure sage leaves are completely dry! Any moisture on them can make the butter pop while browning and it can get messy/hazardous
**You can prep this a day ahead all the way up to the baking part and store them in the fridge. The baking portion just might take 10-15 minutes longer as they will be cold. Just make sure you bake them until the are nice and hot.
