Prep: 20 min Cook: 20 min Servings: 6by Carolinaheartstrings301 recipes>We love our sweet potatoes in the Carolinas, and our pork! I always save my bacon fat for cooking but by all means substitute another fat in the recipe below. To me a little extra bacon flavoring is always welcome thus the bacon crumble garnishing too!

- 1/8 t cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon paprika

- Bacon crumbles to garnish
Directions
