How long should a sweet potato be baked for?

Answer 1

Baked Yams
1 cured sweet potato (yam)

Wash and dry. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees and continue baking until potatoes are soft; about 1 hour for medium potatoes and l 1/2 hours for large. Hint: Do not wrap sweet potatoes with foil because it will steam the sweet potato and you will not have that sweet, syrupy flavor of a good baked yam. This is also true of yams cooked in the microwave.

Answer 2

For large sized sweet potatoes - pierce with a fork on each side, wrap in aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour in 350 degree oven. OR Microwave pierced potatoes on high setting for 5 minutes. Add time when baking several at a time.
