How to Make Baked Sweet Potatoes Steak House Style
- Select 2-4 medium-sized yams (about the same size).
- Wash yams thoroughly under cold running water.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully cut out a small (nickel-sized) wedge from the side of each yam. This prevents them from bursting during cooking.
- Drizzle yams generously with 1 tablespoon olive oil, ensuring all sides are coated.
- Wrap each yam securely in a large piece of aluminum foil.
- Repeat the foil wrapping process two more times, rotating the yam slightly each time to create multiple layers of foil. This helps to retain moisture and heat.
- Place the foil-wrapped yams in your slow cooker.
- Add 1/4 cup of water to the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Turn the slow cooker to low.
- Cook for 4-5 hours, or on low all day if desired. The longer they cook, the softer they become.
- Once cooked, carefully unwrap the yams.
- Top each sweet potato with 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
