Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 1 cup brie cheese, rind removed and cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Sweet Potatoes
- Bake the Potatoes:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pierce each sweet potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape.
- Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 2: Make the Filling
- Cool and Scoop:
- Once the sweet potatoes are baked, allow them to cool slightly.
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl, leaving a small border around the skin to maintain their shape.
- Combine Ingredients:
- To the sweet potato flesh, add the brie cheese, dried cranberries, chopped rosemary, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Mix until well combined. The warmth of the sweet potatoes will help the brie melt slightly, creating a creamy filling.
Step 3: Stuff and Bake
- Stuff the Potatoes:
- Spoon the sweet potato mixture back into the potato skins, mounding it slightly to create a generous portion.
- Bake Again:
- Return the stuffed sweet potatoes to the baking sheet.
- Bake in the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and bubbly.
Step 4: Serve
- Drizzle with Honey:
- If desired, drizzle the tops of the sweet potatoes with honey for a touch of sweetness that complements the savory and tart flavors.
- Serve Warm:
- Arrange on a serving platter and enjoy as a side dish or a vegetarian main course.
