Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
Step 2
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Try to keep the pieces uniform in size to ensure even cooking.
Step 3
Place the sweet potato cubes in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and add the ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the sweet potato pieces are evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to allow for proper roasting.
Step 5
Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through to achieve a golden-brown caramelized exterior.
Step 6
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, heat the honey in a small saucepan over low heat until it becomes more fluid, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to overheat or burn the honey.
Step 7
Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to a serving dish and drizzle the warm honey over the top. Gently toss to coat the potatoes evenly.
Step 8
Optional: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the dish for a pop of color and added freshness.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
