Preheat oven to 375 °F with a rack set in the center position.
Scrub the sweet potatoes under cool water and dry them well with paper towels.
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice each one in half lengthwise.
Drizzle the cut side of each sweet potato half with olive oil, using your hands to lightly coat both the cut side and skin.
Season the cut side with kosher salt and pepper, to taste.
Place the sweet potatoes cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until very tender and deeply caramelized on the cut side.
Let the sweet potatoes rest for a few minutes before removing them from the baking sheet.
Serve as is or with butter, if desired.
