- 1 1/2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
- 1/3 cup natural peanut butter
- 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread sweet potato wedges in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet, avoiding overlap. Toss evenly with oil and salt. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, tossing once halfway through, watching closely to prevent burning. Transfer to a serving platter.

Whisk in 1 to 2 additional Tbsp. of milk, until desired consistency is reached. Drizzle peanut butter sauce over sweet potatoes. Garnish with fresh mint, basil, or green onion.
