Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 1 cup apple cider
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider, olive oil, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the cider mixture over the sweet potato cubes in the large bowl. Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the mixture.
Step 5
Spread the coated sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not crowded to ensure even roasting.
Step 6
Sprinkle the fresh thyme leaves over the sweet potatoes for added flavor.
Step 7
Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, tossing halfway through, until they are tender and caramelized around the edges.
Step 8
Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the cider glaze to set slightly.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy the sweet, savory, and slightly tangy flavors!
