Equipment

  • Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup Maple Syrup
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary crushed
  • 2 Medium Sweet Potatoes
  • Salt and Ground Black Pepper
  • Pan Spray

Instructions

  • Get a medium fire going. You can cook this on a charcoal grill, a BBQ, or on a grill plate over a campfire.
  • In a medium or large mixing bow, whisk together the maple syrup, olive oil, and rosemary. Set aside.
  • Wash your sweet potatoes, and slice into rounds that are about ¼" thick. Place in the mixing bowl, and gently toss to thoroughly coat the sweet potato slices.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Lay 2 good sized pieces of heavy duty foil crosswise to each other, then spray generously with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Spread the coated sweet potatoes out in the center of the foil pieces, then fold to seal them in well. (See photos in the post, for how I do it.)
  • Cook - covered if possible - over your fire for about 10 minutes on each side.
  • Carefully open the packet to check for doneness - you want them soft, all the way through.
  • Season with additional salt and/or pepper if desired, and serve hot!

Notes

Once cooled to room temperature, transfer any leftovers to a freezer bag or other airtight container. Leftovers should keep in the fridge for a few days, at least.
