Learn how to make perfectly roasted sweet potatoes that are crispy on the outside and tender inside. This easy, healthy side dish recipe uses simple seasonings to achieve amazing caramelized edges every time. It is a favorite for weeknight dinners and holiday meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil until they are evenly coated.
  3. Sprinkle the garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper over the sweet potatoes. Toss again until all the spices adhere well to the cubes.
  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 crispiness.
  5. Roast for 20 minutes. Remove the pan and flip the sweet potatoes.
  6. Return to the oven and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy and the centers are tender when pierced with a fork.
  7. Serve immediately as a delicious, healthy sweet potato side dish.

Notes

  • For extra caramelization, you can lightly drizzle 1 teaspoon of maple syrup over the potatoes before the final 10 minutes of roasting.
  • To achieve the crispiest results, make sure the sweet potato cubes are dry before tossing them with oil and spices.
  • This recipe is great for meal prep; store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
