lb dark-orange sweet potatoes (9 large or 12 medium)
8
oz bacon (8 to 10 slices)
1/4
cup Progresso® panko crispy bread crumbs or Progresso® plain bread crumbs
1
tablespoon butter or margarine, melted

DIRECTIONS
1
Heat oven to 350°F. Line 15x10x1-inch pan with foil; spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Pierce sweet potatoes several times with fork. Place in pan. 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.

Meanwhile, cook bacon as desired until crisp; chop. In small bowl, mix bread crumbs and 1 tablespoon butter; set aside.
