Notes
Optional: serve with 100% pure maple syrup or paleo sriracha ketchup!
The first time you make these be sure to check them every 10 minutes. Everyone’s oven is different. You are looking for the bacon to get crispy. Also, play around with the seasonings! I might try some with cumin next time or paprika! You can also forgo the seasonings all together and just wrap up the sweet potatoes as they are.
