Granola-Stuffed Sweet Potatoes with Maple-Tahini Butter
This sweet and savory entrée was contributed by Jamie Vespa from Dishing out Health. Tender sweet potatoes and crispy homemade granola is blanketed in a delicious maple tahini butter.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Pierce sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, or until fork-tender. Transfer to a serving platter and slice each potato down the center, lengthwise.
While potatoes roast, prepare stovetop granola. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium. Once hot, add oats, nuts, seeds, cinnamon, ½ teaspoon salt and ginger; stir to coat. Cook granola, stirring often to prevent burning, until oats are golden and mixture is fragrant, 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in rosemary.
Prepare maple tahini butter by melting butter in a small saucepan over medium-low. Whisk in tahini, maple syrup and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Once mixture is smooth, remove from heat.
Assemble sweet potatoes by filling each potato evenly with granola and drizzling maple tahini butter over the top. Serve immediately.
