Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 medium-sized firm sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes or wedges
  • 2 tablespoons pure raw honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Pinch of salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into even-sized cubes or wedges to ensure consistent roasting and texture.
  2. Coat with Flavor: In a large mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato pieces with olive oil, honey, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until each piece is evenly coated to help develop caramelization.
  3. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated sweet potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Arrange them with enough space so the pieces roast instead of steaming.
  4. Roast to Perfection: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through to ensure even browning and crispy edges.
  5. Serve Warm: Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then enjoy warm. The sweet potatoes should be tender inside with golden, sticky, caramelized edges.

Notes

  • Cut sweet potatoes into uniform sizes for even roasting.
  • Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet to avoid steaming.
  • Use fresh ground cinnamon for the best flavor.
  • For an extra glossy finish, drizzle more honey after roasting.
  • Taste a small piece before roasting and adjust honey or cinnamon according to your preference.
