Steps

  1. 1Scrub and dry your sweet potato and then pierce it on all sides with a fork, 5 or 6 times total.
  2. 2Place the potato in the microwave and cook for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Carefully (the potato will be hot) flip the sweet potato over and microwave for an additional 2 minutes and 30 seconds.
  3. 3Use a knife to pierce the sweet potato to check for doneness. It should slide in smoothly without any resistance. If potato is still undercooked, continue to microwave in 30 second increments until softened.
  4. 4Allow the cooked potato to rest for 2 minutes before slicing open.
  5. 5Top with toppings of your choosing and enjoy!
