Ingredients for Bacon-Wrapped Sweet Potatoes
Sarah Anderson
- 3 medium sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
- 20 slices of bacon
- 1/4 teaspoon pink salt
- Freshly ground pepper
Directions for Bacon-Wrapped Sweet Potatoes
Sarah Anderson
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet with some parchment paper.
- Cut your sweet potatoes into thick-cut wedges or fry shapes.
- Wrap each sweet potato piece with a slice of bacon, slightly overlapping the bacon on itself as it goes around the sweet potato.
- Place the sweet potatoes in a single layer onto the baking sheet, leaving an inch or two in between each one. Do this in two batches, if needed. Sprinkle salt and pepper on top before baking.
- Bake the bacon-wrapped sweet potatoes for 35 minutes. The potatoes should be tender and the bacon should be crispy.
- Serve the wedges with your choice of ketchup, ranch, or aioli – or all of the above! Enjoy!
