How to bake a good sweet potatoe?

[A-Rod]

I can never get them to crisp up They are either limp or they end up coming out black but still limp How everyone gets them to crisp up

i make "chips" instead of fries ... i don't think the fries really get crispy.

i slice the chips [just cut the potato into rounds] very thinly and roast at a lower heat so they essentially dry out [325ish]. don't remember how long it takes - i haven't done these for a long time - but just until they get crisp.

I always eat the skin! I've always been told that's where the fiber is!!!

Actually, I don't even care if they crisp up. They taste good anyway. I especially like them with splenda and cinnamon sprinkled on after I take them out of the oven.

Just copying in a recipe that had gone missing:

Candied Sweet Potatoes, P2 & P3

3 or 4 large sweet potatoes
1/3 cup Smart Balance
1 cup Brown Sugar Twin (or 3/4 cup maple syrup with Splenda)

Peel and cut potatoes into thick slices. Boil until not quite done. Drain and place in baking dish. Meanwhile, heat Smart Balance and sugar twin/syrup; pour over potatoes. Bake at 400 for 30-40 minutes.
Now, I am a HUGE jellied cranberry sauce fan. So I attempted to make my own this year It's in the fridge chilling as we speak. This recipe comes from the Ocean Spray bag of cranberries, I just subbed Splenda for sugar.

And, if you haven't discovered Sweet Potato Fries, you need to try them. We use parmesan to help crisp them up.
