Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed about 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon optional
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper optional

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • Large bowl
  • Measuring spoons
  • Measuring cups
  • Parchment paper (optional)
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into roughly 1-inch cubes.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  4. Spread the sweet potato cubes in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
  5. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and slightly caramelized, with browned and slightly crispy edges.
  6. Let the Roasted Sweet Potato Bites cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For easier cleanup, line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Don’t skip flipping the sweet potatoes for even browning. To sweeten, drizzle with maple syrup or honey before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through.
