Main Ingredients

2 large Sweet Potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes Choose firm potatoes for the best texture.
3 tablespoons Olive Oil, for coating Avocado oil also makes for a great substitute.
1 teaspoon Salt, to taste Feel free to use sea salt or kosher salt.
1/2 teaspoon Pepper, freshly ground Adjust the amount for your preference.
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder, for added flavor Onion powder works as an excellent alternative.
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika, for a smoky touch Regular paprika can be used for a milder flavor.

Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Toss until evenly coated.
Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Cooking

Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Avoid overcrowding the baking sheet to ensure proper roasting. Preheat your oven adequately for even cooking. Experiment with spices like cumin or chili powder for a fresh twist. For added sweetness, drizzle with maple syrup before serving.
