How to Make Limed Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Wash and pierce 4 medium sweet potatoes (about 1.5 lbs total) several times with a fork.
- Roast sweet potatoes for 45-60 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Halve potatoes lengthwise and gently scoop out the soft insides, leaving about 1/4-inch of potato flesh on the skin. Try to keep the skins intact.
- In a medium bowl, mash the cooked sweet potato flesh with 2 tablespoons of butter, 1 tablespoon lime juice (about 1/2 a lime), 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Re-fill the sweet potato skins with the mixture, mounding slightly.
- Bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and slightly browned.
- Serve immediately with 1 cup of heated black beans. Garnish with extra lime zest (optional).
