How to Make Stuffed Baked Sweet Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pierce sweet potatoes several times with a fork. Place on a baking sheet.
  3. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a fork easily pierces the center.
  4. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Let the sweet potatoes cool slightly. Cut lengthwise, slicing off the top of each potato to create a lid.
  6. Carefully scoop out the insides of each sweet potato, leaving a 1/8-inch thick shell. Set the shells aside.
  7. In a medium bowl, mash the scooped-out sweet potato pulp with a potato masher or fork until smooth.
  8. Add 1/4 cup milk, 2 tablespoons butter, and 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar to the mashed sweet potato.
  9. Beat with a mixer or whisk until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  10. Spoon the sweet potato mixture back into the shells, mounding slightly.
  11. Place the stuffed sweet potato shells in a large, shallow baking pan.
  12. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and the topping is lightly browned.
