Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1.5 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into evenly-sized cubes, about 1 inch in size.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Add the sweet potato cubes to the bowl and toss them thoroughly to ensure they are evenly coated with the honey-mustard mixture.
Spread the coated sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow for even roasting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the sweet potato cubes halfway through cooking, until they are tender and lightly caramelized on the edges.
Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly for 2-3 minutes.
If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy the sweet and savory harmony of flavors!
