Sweet potato nutrition facts by portion

Use the baked flesh weight. The USDA medium portion names raw potato dimensions as a size reference; its nutrition still belongs to the baked-flesh record. Grams avoid that size ambiguity.

At the kitchen counter

Check the preparation and edible portion.

Raw, boiled, and baked sweet potato entries are not interchangeable by weight. Preparation changes water content, and records may also differ in whether the skin is included. Read the full USDA description before weighing your portion, especially when you discard the skin or mash the flesh.

A small or medium potato is only a reference size. Use grams when your potato does not match the listed portion, or when a recipe divides several potatoes between servings. For mash, a tray of roasted cubes, or a loaded sweet potato, account for butter, oil, milk, sugar, and toppings separately. The ingredient estimate below is not the nutrition of those finished dishes.
