Directions

Bake about 1 hour 15 minutes or until tender. Cool 10 minutes. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel potatoes and cut out any eyes or dark spots.
2 Meanwhile, cook bacon as desired until crisp; chop. In small bowl, mix bread crumbs and 1 tablespoon butter; set aside.
3 In large bowl, mash potatoes with potato masher. Stir in chopped bacon, sour cream, 1/4 cup butter, the onions, salt and pepper until well blended. Spread mixture in baking dish, or form individual servings in dish with 1/2-cup ice cream scoop or measuring cup. Sprinkle crumb mixture evenly over top.
4 Bake 20 to 30 minutes or until thoroughly heated and bread crumbs just begin to brown.

Just loved this dish. I am not a fan of sweet potatores but always fix them because my husband loves them. This dish converted me to a lover of the dark orange vegtable! This is delicious.

What a very easy and yummy way to make sweet potatoes! I made them the day before Thanksgiving to let the flavors meld. They were presented just like the picture and everyone was impressed. Presentation is everything, along with a delicious taste. Not many leftovers, but the ones that were, were simply divine. Definitely a keeper. I will make this dish again!! P.S that should be 5 STARS!!!

I can't figure out why this recipe only has 3 stars. It's delish. Our two different families have both requested it for Thanksgiving this year. It's different and so yummy. Also easy to make. Seriously, everyone loves it. Def a recipe to keep on file and make year after year. If you are on the fence, make it!
