- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Ensure the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.
Step 4
Spread the sweet potatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden and tender.

Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to a large serving bowl.
