Brûléed Sweet Potato with Prosciutto and Walnuts
20 mins prepServes 2
@alexawhatsfordinner really said “dracarys” with this one 😈🔥. Why have a regular baked sweet potato when you can have a brûléed one?! This simple twist adds a crunchy texture and caramel-like flavor. 🤗 recipe below ‼️
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
Drizzle the sweet potato with olive oil, then use a fork to poke several holes all over the outside. Wrap in aluminum foil and bake for about 1 hour, until very tender.
Meanwhile, arrange the prosciutto on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until crispy.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown and granulated sugars.
Cut the baked sweet potato in half lengthwise. Score the flesh with a knife at ½-inch intervals, then spread the butter over both sides. Sprinkle with the cinnamon and the sugar mixture.
Using a kitchen torch, brûlée the sugar until melted and deeply browned.
Crumble the crispy prosciutto, then sprinkle over the brûléed sweet potato, along with the walnuts.
Enjoy!
