I love to do a whole bag of sweet potatoes overnight in the crockpot (just wash first) and then we have easy to use potatoes for any meal or baking that week. My kids will fight over the caramelized skins when they’ve been eating cleanly.
Such a great hack!!
Such a great breakfast option. I always struggle to know what to eat for breakfast and I’ve made this a couple times and worked out great.

Can you used canned sweet potatoes? I’m a busy moms with 3 under 3 so this would make it even easier!
