  1. 1

    Prepare the sweet potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.

  2. 2

    Season the sweet potatoes

    In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes with olive oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Roast the sweet potatoes

    Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until tender and caramelized, tossing halfway through.

    Add pecans and marshmallows

    In the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the chopped pecans and marshmallows (if using) over the sweet potatoes and return to the oven until the marshmallows are golden brown.
