Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat and Prep
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Peel and cube sweet potatoes into 1-inch pieces for even cooking.
2. Season the Sweet Potatoes
- In a large bowl, toss cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
- Optional: Add cinnamon for warmth or cayenne for a spicy kick.
3. Arrange on the Baking Sheet
- Spread sweet potatoes in a single layer, ensuring they are not crowded—this helps achieve crispiness instead of steaming.
4. Roast to Perfection
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
- Potatoes are done when crispy outside, caramelized inside.
5. Garnish & Serve
- Transfer to a serving dish.
- Optional: Garnish with fresh herbs, drizzle with honey or maple syrup, or sprinkle with cheese for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately while warm and crispy!
🔥 Pro Tip: For extra crunch, roast at 425°F (218°C) for the last 5 minutes!
