Yaki Imo are traditional Japanese sweet potatoes baked until caramelized, soft, and naturally sweet. Typically enjoyed as a warm snack in autumn and winter, Yaki Imo is loved for its creamy texture and rich, naturally sweet flavor. This simple and wholesome treat highlights the natural sweetness of Japanese sweet potatoes without the need for added sugar.
Preheat the oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Clean the sweet potatoes
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Pat dry with a towel.
Optional oil coating
Lightly brush the sweet potatoes with a little oil for a crispier skin. Sprinkle lightly with salt if desired.
Wrap or place on tray
You can wrap each potato in aluminum foil or place them directly on a baking tray.
Bake the sweet potatoes
Bake for 45–60 minutes, depending on their size. Check doneness by inserting a skewer or fork—it should go in easily.
Cool slightly
Let the sweet potatoes cool for a few minutes to handle safely.
Serve warm
Enjoy the Yaki Imo as-is or peel and eat the sweet, creamy interior.
