Ingredients:
½ c chopped pecans
1 tbsp brown sugar, more or less to taste
¼ c maple syrup
2 tbsp melted butter
salt and pepper to taste
2 lbs. sweet potatoes, scrubbed, peeled if desired, and sliced crosswise into ½-inch rounds
Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat it to 225 degrees C or 450 degrees F.
Line the inside of a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
In a large container, add the sweet potatoes, salt, pepper, and melted butter. Toss to coat.
Transfer the coated sweet potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the sweet potatoes for about 20 minutes or until they turn golden brown.
In a mixing bowl, add the chopped pecans, maple syrup, and brown sugar. Stir everything until well blended.
Turn the sweet potatoes, then top each with the maple syrup mixture. Bake for 5 more minutes. Remove from the oven.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes:
Feel free to use coconut oil instead of butter.
You can also use walnuts instead of pecans.
You can make this ahead of time. Just keep them in the fridge until ready to bake.
Leftovers should be kept in an airtight container, then in the fridge. Reheat for a few minutes before serving again.
