Baked sweet potatoes with real butter taste like a dessert. And so yummy. Sometimes I add a little cinnamon mixed into the butter, but today it was just plain butter and a little salt. I am not used to such sweet foods since being on KETO for several years. I sometimes buy some chocolate candy and it is also sweet, of course. However, today these sweet potatoes were so very rich and sweet that I could only eat a little bit. In the past, if I have it available, I have made the baked sweet potatoes, but instead of butter, I have covered with homemade chicken broth. That tastes really good too. For holidays, I always took the canned sweet potatoes, drained them, and mixed with butter and brown sugar, then cooked on the stove. Some people like adding marshmallows and putting them in a baking dish in the oven. As I don't like marshmallows, I have never done this. Some add pecans also. I don't like pecans either. I also do not like mixed textures in my foods, so soft foods need to be soft without crunchy things in them. Do you like sweet potatoes? How do you like to fix them?
