Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 3 tablespoons orange marmalade
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes for even roasting.
Place the sweet potato cubes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and toss to coat evenly.
Spread the sweet potatoes out in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and edges are caramelized.
While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the orange marmalade, balsamic vinegar, and honey. Stir constantly until fully combined, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to a serving dish. Drizzle the orange marmalade and balsamic glaze over the top.
Sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves, if desired, for added flavor and garnish. Serve warm and enjoy!
