Description
These crispy roasted sweet potatoes are a delicious and healthy side dish, perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into ½ inch cubes (about 6 cups)
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easier clean up.
- Wash, peel and chop the sweet potatoes into ½-inch cubes. They should be the same size so that they cook evenly. This should give you about 6 cups worth.
- Add the chopped sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Drizzle 3 Tbsp olive oil, and sprinkle 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp ground black pepper, ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp garlic powder, ¼ tsp ground cumin, and ¼ tsp onion powder over the sweet potatoes. Toss the ingredients together evenly.
- Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Place in the oven to bake at 425°F for 40 minutes, flipping them halfway through. The sweet potatoes will have crispy edges but still be tender inside when they’re done.
Notes
- For even crispiness, ensure all sweet potato pieces are roughly the same size.
- Feel free to adjust the spices to your taste.
