Ingredients

• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• 1/2 tea. salt
• 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
• 1 Tbsp. olive oil
• 2 lb. sweet potatoes, sliced into about 1/4" thick circles
• 1/2 tea. red chili flakes

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together the syrup, salt, orange juice, and olive oil.

Add sweet potato slices to a 9x13 baking dish (or cast iron skillet?) and pour liquid mixture over the top. Stir thoroughly to cover all the potatoes in mixture.

Cover with foil and place i oven for 15 minutes. Remove foil, stir and place pan back in oven, uncovered. Cook for another 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to continue basting the sweet potatoes. Potatoes are done when they can be pierced with a fork and are tender.
