Perfect taste, appearance, easy, and healthy! I love sweet potatoes and the touch of cinnamon. Made as posted and had them in the oven for over 20 minutes. We had ours with Recipe#211424, Recipe #242475, and Recipe#57679 for a nice summer meal. Thank you Kymmarie for sharing a keeper! Made for I Recommend Tag.

I made these for the second time tonight and we just LOVE them! I love sweet potatoes in any shape or form but my hubby's not so easy. He loves the unique spice and I love the low calorie count. Great recipe!

Excellent! This has only 1 WW point per serving. It has a wonderful combination of flavors. Sweet and hot. Nice kick to it. Served it with steamed broccoli, 2 pineapple slices heated in some of it's own juice and recipe #272887 for a total WW meal of 6 points. Thanks Kymmarie for posting.

Excellent. I loved the combination of sweet and spicy. I baked mine along with some other dishes at 375 for about an hour and the sweet potatoes were nicely done. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
