Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings 4 sweet potatoes 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided 6 slices bacon 2 tablespoons butter, softened 2 chipotle peppers in adobo, finely chopped, plus 2 tablespoons sauce 2 tablespoons maple syrup 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion 1/4 cup sour cream 2 3/4 cups shredded pepper Jack cheese, divided Directions Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment. Rub potatoes evenly with oil and sprinkle evenly with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Pierce potatoes with a fork and place them on the prepared sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until completely tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, about 10 minutes. Reserve 1 tablespoon bacon grease. Drain bacon on paper towels, chop, and set aside. Cut the top 1/4 off the top of each potato and scoop out most of the potato, reserving intact skins with flesh about 1/8-inch-thick. Add scooped flesh to a bowl with butter, reserved bacon grease, and remaining salt, and mash until creamy and only small lumps remain. Stir in chipotles and adobo sauce, maple syrup, green onions, sour cream, and 1 cup cheese. Divide filling evenly among potatoes and top each with 1 tablespoon cheese. Return potatoes to the lined baking sheet. Return to the oven and bake until hot and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
