Ingredients:
2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
3 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
Optional: chopped pecans or walnuts for garnish
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Prepare the Sweet Potatoes: In a spacious bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, salt, and pepper, ensuring they are well-coated.
Roast: Arrange the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast them for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and the edges are caramelized, stirring once at the midpoint to ensure even roasting.
Serve: Take the sweet potatoes out of the oven, optionally top with chopped nuts for a crunchy texture, and serve them warm.
