Slow baking is the preferred method. I bake a panful, refrigerate and then re-heat each SP for my meal - they keep well for at least a week.
The tiniest smidge of butter is all that is needed - or none. Very good on a diet because they satisfy your hunger and your tastebuds.

Yummy Sweet Potatoes! I like them steamed with a little butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.
Sylvia's recipe of French fried with honey sounds really good too! Looks like I need to go to the store soon...

A little too helpful; sweet potato consumption in women of childbearing age has been linked to more twin births.
