This easy side dish features tender oven-roasted sweet potatoes coated in a luscious honey-butter glaze, infused with warm cinnamon, a hint of salt, and a touch of black pepper for a subtle kick. With just 10 minutes of prep and 35 minutes of cooking, you’ll have a beautifully caramelized dish, finished with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a vibrant touch. Ideal for holiday feasts or weeknight dinners, these honey-roasted sweet potatoes are guaranteed to brighten any meal with their golden hue and rich, comforting flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Place the sweet potato cubes on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Melt the butter in a small microwave-safe bowl or saucepan over low heat. Once melted, stir in the honey, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the honey-butter mixture over the sweet potatoes and toss to coat evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized around the edges.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your flavorful Honeyed Sweet Potatoes!
