Equipment

1 Baking Sheet

Ingredients

4 sweet potatoes
1/4 cup vegan butter divided
Salt to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line the baking sheet with parchment.
Line your baking sheet with parchment paper because sweet potatoes will release ooze juices when baking.
Bake them for about 1 hour, turning them after 30 minutes to ensure even cooking. Depending on the size, you might need to bake them for longer.
Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Cut the tops of the sweet potatoes in a vertical line, add a pinch of salt, mash the flesh with a fork, and add one tablespoon of vegan butter per sweet potato.
