Our sweet potato cooks give some advice:
For a Regular sized potato (3"-4" long), try 50-60 minutes at 350-400 degrees. (This varies depending on whether you want just cooked or well cooked skin.)
Either use a baking pan with the potato uncovered for dry crispy skins, or wrap the potato in foil without a baking pan for softer skin (add 15 minutes to cook time if wrapped).
For 7"-8" baking potatoes cook 80-90 minutes at 400 degrees for either wrap method.
Options: Rub butter or other oil on skin to add taste and help keep soft in either version. You can add salt and pepper to taste before cooking. Too much salt may dry the skin. Sea salt is a good choice.
Only for conventional oven method - Place a metal cooking pin all the way through (use two if needed) to cut the cooking time by a third.
When potato is done, you should be able to squeeze slightly lengthwise or cross-wise for softness.
Wrap in foil, bake for 45 to 55 minutes at 350 degrees, or till soft in the center when pierced with a fork.
Bake a sweet potato the same as for a russet potato. Bake at 400 degrees for one hour. It's done when you can easily poke a fork into the potato. Bon Appetit!

How long do you cook sweet potatoes in the oven
45
Yes, you can cook sweet potatoes in the slow cooker, wrapped in foil. The length of time it will take for them to cook thoroughly will depend on the temperature in the cooker and the size of the potatoes. It's good to add a little butter in with each wrapped potato to add flavor.
Boiled Sweet Potatoes:Peel the sweet potatoes and cut into pieces. Cover with water and boil approximately 20 minutes or until very tender. Check for tenderness with a knife or fork.Baked Sweet Potatoes:-Wash sweet potatoes-Brush each potato with vegetable oil (lightly)-Arrange on oven rack or on a cookie sheet-Bake at 450 degrees F for 35 to 45 minutes or until fork tender-Cut the top of the potato open and softly squish to open it up-Sprinkle with salt and pepper-Add butter-ServeCooking time will actually depend on the size of the potato, so timing may be shorter or longer.wiz
When using a conventional oven, the baking times do not change whether you are baking one sweet potato or a dozen sweet potatoes. The baking times only change when you put additional items into a microwave oven.
350 degrees for 1 hour
If baking in a conventional oven, the time is not changed whether cooking 1 or 12 potatoes - about 45 minutes at 400 degrees. Test for doneness by piercing with a fork, as smaller potatoes will be done more quickly. If baking in a microwave, you do need to add more time for additional potatoes. The timing will also be effected by the size of the potatoes, as well as the type of microwave itself. 12 large potatoes would fill up a standard microwave. I would begin with 20 minutes, testing the potatoes for doneness every minute after that.
No. When baking with a glass pan, the temperature is reduced from 350 degrees to 325 degrees, but the baking time is not lengthened.
This is a good option if you plan on keeping potatoes for an extended period of time. The result of freezing potatoes, however, may make the texture change in an undesirable way.
Baking soda (Sodium bicarbonate) causes an exothermic reaction in the water which causes the water's temperature to lower. At the same time the baking soda dissolves in the water within a minute of putting the baking soda in the water.
It could if you have the money. If it fits it ships for a low flat rate at the postal office. But don't you think by the time it get there, it won't be sweet?
Yes. Baked potatoes are usually cooked at 400o C for 1 hour while most cakes bake at 350o C. You will simply need to adjust your baking time for the potato, adding approx. 20 min. Alternately you can increase the baking temp when the cake is removed and adjust your time by about only 10 min.
It would change cooking time, lower temperature means longer cooking time. Also, you are less likely to brown something at a lower temperature. When baking sweet foods, such as cookies or cakes, the lower temperature brings out the sweetness more. At higher temperatures the flavor of the oils become more prominent. When eggs are part of the recipe it is necessary that the internal temperature of the baking item reach 160 degrees Fahrenheit (71 degrees Celsius) in order to kill any dangerous bacteria.
the same time as baking 1 potato if your oven is large enough
