The best tools for this festive Thanksgiving sweet potato

To create the leaves on these sweet potatoes, I used an etching tool that I used for a clay class. If you are very careful, you could use a small knife to carve out the patterns.

Have fun and get creative with these festive sweet potatoes! Usually I use ghee for baking because it tolerates higher temperatures and olive oil burns faster. But because of that, I used olive oil as it burns the sweet potatoes just a little, which makes the pattern pop out more!

Ingredients:

  • Sweet potatoes, as many as you’d like
  • Olive oil for brushing on top of the sweet potato slices
Preheat your oven to 357° F . Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Cut your sweet potatoes lengthwise into 1/4 – 1/2 inch slices.
