Ingredients

  • 6 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
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 2 medium green onions, chopped (2 tablespoons)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  • 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.
