Sweet potatoes are a staple in our home. They’re healthy, tasty, and pretty much the perfect compliment to every meal. We love eating these for the holidays especially because they are easy to prepare in batches and make ahead of time. Growing up we would always eat twice baked potatoes for holidays so I wanted to put a fun twist on this traditional favorite by making twice baked sweet potatoes. This recipe is simple to make for anyone. It’s topped with homemade cinnamon whipped cream that everyone will love.
