Ingredients:
- 4 sweet potatoes
- 10 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup fresh sage
- 1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

- Peel and slice the sweet potatoes into rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Place the sliced sweet potatoes in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the sweet potatoes, ensuring they are evenly coated to prevent discoloration.

- Gently stir the sweet potatoes to coat them evenly with the butter and cheese.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring the flavors are well-balanced.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning.
- Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Remove the foil from the dish and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese over the sweet potatoes.
- Bake, uncovered, for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Once done, serve the Sweet Potatoes with Sage and Parmesan Cheese hot, garnished with additional fresh sage leaves if desired.
