Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Step 2
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.

Spread the sweet potatoes evenly across the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they’re in a single layer for proper roasting.

Sprinkle the fresh rosemary and chopped pecans evenly over the sweet potatoes.
Step 7
Roast in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through, until they are tender and caramelized on the edges.
