Sweet potatoes with vanila

10 small sweet potatoes, I like Korean/Japanese sweet potatoes
1 1/2 cups maple syrup
1 6" vanilla bean
1 teaspoon wole cloves
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt


1. Scrub the sweet potatoes, pierce with fork and place in oven; use aluminum foil on the backing sheet to help with cleaning. Bake it on 350 F for 45-60 minutes.
2. Combine the maple syrup, vanilla bean and cloves in a small saucepan and simmer for 5-6 minutes.
3. Remove potatoes from the oven and cut each lengthwise into 4 wedges. arrange on a serving dish, sprinkle with the salt and pour the syrup over them (do not pour cloves and vanilla bean).
