Ingredients

• 3 medium-sized sweet potatoes
• 4 large carrots
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

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

Peel the sweet potatoes and carrots. Cut them into 1-inch chunks or sticks, ensuring they are similar in size for even cooking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes and carrots. Drizzle the olive oil and honey over the vegetables.

Step 4

Sprinkle the ground cinnamon, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the mixture. Toss everything well to coat the vegetables evenly with the seasonings.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes and carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to allow for proper roasting.

Step 6

Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the vegetables halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized around the edges.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor.

Step 8

Serve warm as a side dish with your favorite protein or enjoy on its own!
