Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 400℉. While the oven is preheating, wash and cube the sweet potatoes into about ½ -1 inch cubes, making sure the cubes are similar in size. This should yield about 6 cups.
- Add the cubed sweet potatoes to a large baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of oil, and season with ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ teaspoon chili powder, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ⅛ teaspoon black pepper. Toss to evenly coat.
- Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove and toss. Place back in the oven for an additional 5-8 minutes or until the sweet potatoes start to brown and become tender.
- Remove from the oven, toss, and add additional salt to taste. Serve immediately.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
Notes
- For extra crispy roasted sweet potatoes, ensure they are spread in a single layer on the baking sheet without overcrowding. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
- To check for doneness, pierce a sweet potato cube with a fork; it should be tender through the center. For even browning, I always make sure to toss them halfway through, otherwise, some sides won't get that coveted crisp.
- Leftover roasted sweet potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes to regain some crispiness, or microwave for a quicker option. Nutrition information is an estimate, calculated automatically.
