Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure that your sweet potatoes roast evenly.

  2. 2

    Wash and Peel the Sweet Potatoes

    Thoroughly wash the sweet potatoes under running water to remove any dirt. Peel the skin using a vegetable peeler.

  3. 3

    Cut the Sweet Potatoes

    Cut the sweet potatoes into even cubes, about 1-inch in size. This will help them cook evenly and quickly.

Roasting

  1. 4

    Toss with Olive Oil and Seasonings

    In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Toss until the sweet potatoes are well coated.

  2. 5

    Spread on a Baking Sheet

    Spread the coated sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This will prevent sticking and promote even roasting.

  3. 6

    Roast in the Oven

    Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown. Stir them halfway through cooking to ensure they roast evenly.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Serve warm as a delicious side dish or snack!
