INGREDIENTS
Sweet Potatoes
Butter
Dark Brown Sugar
Ground Cinnamon
Place a sheet of aluminum down on a flat surface. Layer a pat of butter, a sweet potato, and another pat of butter on top of the potato.
Sprinkle an ⅛ teaspoon of cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar over the
sweet potato.
Wrap each sweet potato tightly in aluminum foil making sure to tuck in the sides to keep the butter and brown sugar from leaking out.
Place the wrapped sweet potatoes seam side up into the crock pot. Place the lid on and cook on high for 3 to 5 hours.
The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the sweet potatoes and how many you have placed in the
slow cooker.
Check the sweet potatoes half way through the cooking time by squeezing the center with a pair of tongs.
Unwrap the foil, place the sweet potato in a dish. Cut down the center and fluff the center of the sweet potato with a fork.
Pour the melted butter, brown sugar and cinnamon over the potato with more butter
if desired.
