Ingredients:

• 4 sweet potatoes
• 10 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup fresh sage
• 1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
3. Peel and slice the sweet potatoes into rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
4. Place the sliced sweet potatoes in a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
5. Drizzle the melted butter over the sweet potatoes, ensuring they are evenly coated to prevent discoloration.
6. Bake the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
7. Meanwhile, prepare the sage butter. In a heavy skillet over medium-low heat, melt the remaining butter.
8. Add the fresh sage leaves to the melted butter and sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
9. Remove the baked sweet potatoes from the oven. Pour the sage butter mixture over the potatoes.
10. Sprinkle 1 cup of Parmesan cheese over the sweet potatoes and sage butter.
11. Gently stir the sweet potatoes to coat them evenly with the butter and cheese.
12. Season with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring the flavors are well-balanced.
13. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning.
14. Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
15. Remove the foil from the dish and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese over the sweet potatoes.
16. Bake, uncovered, for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
17. Once done, serve the Sweet Potatoes with Sage and Parmesan Cheese hot, garnished with additional fresh sage leaves if desired.
