Ingredients

6 whole sweet potatoes
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Tablespoon salt

Maple Cinnamon Butter

8 Tablespoons salted butter softenend
4 Tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat your smoker to 250 degrees F.
Wash and dry your sweet potatoes. Pierce them with a fork on all sides. Drizzle with olive oil, and rub all over the skin of the sweet potatoes. Season the sweet potatoes on all sides with the salt.
Place the potatoes on the smoker, close the lid, and smoke for 2 hours, or until the potatoes pierce evenly with a fork. A perfectly cooked sweet potato will have an internal temperature of 210 degrees F. so aim for your potatoes to be between 205-215 degrees F.
In a small bowl, whisk together the salted butter, maple syrup, and cinnamon. Set aside.
Remove the sweet potatoes to a serving platter, split your potatoes open with a knife, fluff the insides with a fork, and top with a spoonful of the maple cinnamon butter.
