how long to bake sweet potatoes at 325

To bake sweet potatoes at 325°F, follow these guidelines based on size:

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
2. Prepare the sweet potatoes by washing and poking them with a fork a few times to allow steam to escape. Optionally, wrap in foil for even cooking.
3. Season if desired (e.g., olive oil, salt, pepper, spices).
4. Bake according to size:

   • Small sweet potatoes: 60-75 minutes.
   • Medium sweet potatoes: 75-90 minutes.
   • Large sweet potatoes: 90-120 minutes.

5. Check for doneness by inserting a fork; it should slide in easily.
6. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

This method works well for lower temperature baking, ensuring tender results.
