- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then dice them into 1-inch cubes. Aim for uniform sizes to ensure even cooking.
Place the sweet potato cubes in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil and honey over the sweet potatoes. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper.
Toss the sweet potatoes thoroughly to coat them evenly with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there’s no overlap for optimal roasting.
Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even browning.
When the sweet potatoes are tender and golden brown around the edges, remove them from the oven.
Transfer the roasted sweet potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve warm and enjoy this delightful combination of sweet, savory, and lightly spiced flavors.
