Preheat oven to 400°F. Wash sweet potatoes and poke holes with a fork (about 4 for each potato). Place potatoes on a baking sheet and place in the center of the oven.
Bake for about 60 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are a bit wrinkly and fork tender.
Remove from oven and let cool. Once cool enough to handle, use your hands to peel the skin away from the flesh. Discard the skin (or snack on it).
Add potato flesh to your food processor and blend until smooth.
Use in recipes that call for sweet potato puree, serve as baby food or add seasonings to make a delicious side dish.
