Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes; cut them into bite-sized cubes.
- In a bowl, toss sweet potato cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 25-30 minutes or until tender and lightly caramelized.
