Maple Glazed Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are a nutritious vegetable... so why not cook it more often, Quinn?! I found a simple and delicious recipe for a maple syrup glazed sweet potato. I used agave syrup, maple flavored for the glaze instead of the sugary option of pure maple syrup. My mother was in town visiting and she very much enjoyed the potato dish. We all commented that it was light, as though the agave mixture baked right into the roasted potato dish. Delish. Enjoy.
Agave Maple Glazed Sweet Potatoes
Inspired by Eating Well
3 large bulky sweet potatoes
1/3 c. agave syrup maple flavored
2 tbs melted butter
1 tbs lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
dash of pepper, to taste
*If you are wanting to play around, lower the amount of syrup and butter a little. We were thinking you would get a crispier potato this way.
Preheat oven to 400. Dice and peel potatoes, quarter sized. Mix agave, melted butter, lemon, salt and pepper in a separate bowl. Pour mix over potatoes and evenly distribute. Bake for 40-50 minutes. Until tender or browned.
