Roasted Sweet Potatoes
These sweet potatoes are perfect as a side dish for the fall, and for your thanksgiving table. This recipe is not only easy, it happens to be only four ingredients which you probably have on hand.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 2 peeled and cubed sweet potatoes make sure the cubes are more or less the same size
- drizzle extra virgin olive oil
- pinch salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- sprig thyme or rosemary optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425F. Wash, peel, and cube the sweet potatoes. I used two medium sweet potatoes but you can use as much as you like. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Season with salt, add the olive oil, maple syrup, and optionally thyme or rosemary. Both of these herbs will work beautifully in this recipe.
- Massage everything with your hands and bake for 35-45 minutes depending on the oven. The timing will depend on the type of oven you have, mine is much weaker and older and it does take a bit longer so be sure to check on them often.
