During the cold months, I love sweet potatoes! They're hearty, versatile, healthy, and delicious. As obsessed with them as I am, one would think I’m devoted to one particular sweet potato recipe, but I’m not. That brings me to this recipe—these sound UH-MAY-ZING, and I definitely plan to make these very soon.

Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes with Walnut Streusel

5 servings

Ingredients
3 large sweet potatoes
4 tablespoons packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
pinch salt
½ teaspoon cinnamon

The Streusel
3 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons packed brown sugar

Instructions
Prick sweet potatoes with a fork or knife and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until soft. 

Once sweet potatoes are cooked, slice in half and scoop out the centers into a bowl leaving a 1/4 inch border of sweet potato with the skin. Mix in brown sugar, butter, salt and cinnamon until smooth. Using a large tipped pastry bag, pipe the filling back into their sweet potato shells {Or spoon it back in}.

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for streusel and mix together until butter starts to warm and ingredients start sticking together. Top the filled sweet potatoes with the streusel and bake 20-30 minutes. Serve warm.

Enjoy your winter!
