Make sweet potatoes that are crispy on the outside and tender inside using this simple, reliable oven method. This easy roasted sweet potatoes recipe works as a healthy side dish for weeknight dinners or holiday meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
  2. Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil.
  3. Add the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to the bowl. Toss everything together until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated with oil and spices.
  4. Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to ensure crispness.
  5. Roast for 25 to 35 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through the cooking time. The potatoes are done when they are fork-tender and have caramelized, crispy edges.
  6. Serve immediately as a quick vegetable side or healthy roasted vegetables option.

Notes

  • For extra sweetness, drizzle with honey or maple syrup during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
  • To achieve a garlic roasted sweet potatoes flavor, add 1 teaspoon of minced fresh garlic during the last 10 minutes of cooking to prevent burning.
  • If you prefer a cinnamon maple sweet potatoes flavor, omit the paprika and garlic powder, and instead toss with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon before roasting.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten free side dishes friendly and vegan roasted sweet potatoes adaptable by ensuring you use oil instead of butter if you were to add any.
