Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup cranberry sauce
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, toss the sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, and ground black pepper until evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the sweet potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 5
Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
Step 6
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the cranberry glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the cranberry sauce, maple syrup, chopped fresh rosemary, and orange zest.
Step 7
Heat the saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the glaze is smooth and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Step 8
Remove the roasted sweet potatoes from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish.
Step 9
Drizzle the warm cranberry glaze over the roasted sweet potatoes, tossing gently to combine and coat evenly.
Step 10
Serve immediately, garnished with extra rosemary if desired.
