The Healthy Cook
List of Ingredients
- 4 large sweet potatoes
- 1/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt
- 3 Tbsp maple syrup
- 3 Tbsp orange juice
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Place the potatoes on a no-stick baking sheet. Bake for 1 1/4 hours, or until easily pierced with fork. Slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4" shell. Set aside the shells and transfer the pulp to a large bowl.
- Using a potato masher or fork, mash the pulp. Stir in the yogurt, maple syrup, orange juice and nutmeg. Mix well. Spoon the filling into the reserved shells.
- Return to the oven and bake for 5 minutes, or until heated through.
Final Comments
To cut baking time, microwave potatoes on high power for a total of 8 to 10 minutes, or until tender; turn the potatoes halfway through cooking time.
