Best Oven Roasted Sweet Tators Recipes

PERFECT ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
• Either scrub the sweet potatoes clean and pat dry, or peel them (I generally peel mine). To slice, use a sharp chef's knife to cut them into 1-inch thick rounds. Then, cut up each round to make 1-inch cubes. The "cubes" won't be perfectly even, but that's ok.
• Place the sweet potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle the olive oil on top. If using, sprinkle the chili pepper or several twists of freshly ground black pepper on top, followed by the salt. Toss until the sweet potatoes are all evenly coated in oil, and arrange them in a single layer.
• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, tossing halfway, until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelizing at the edges. Serve while warm. Leftover sweet potatoes will keep in the refrigerator, covered, for about 4 days. Gently reheat in the microwave or oven if desired.

BAKED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then set a wire rack inside the baking sheet.
• Prick each of the sweet potatoes 5 times with a fork and place on top of the prepared rack, keeping space between potatoes to allow heat to circulate. Bake the sweet potatoes until a paring knife can easily go through without resistance, about 1 hour. Turn the oven off and let the potatoes rest inside for 30 minutes more. Remove from the oven and cut each potato in half lengthwise. Season with salt and pepper and top with butter if using.

ROASTED SWEET POTATOES WITH HONEY AND CINNAMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lay the sweet potatoes out in a single layer on a roasting tray. Drizzle the oil, honey, cinnamon, salt and pepper over the potatoes. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes in oven or until tender.
• Take sweet potatoes out of the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Drizzle with more extra-virgin olive oil.

OVEN-ROASTED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. Chop the sweet potatoes into 2-3cm cubes.
• Tip into a large, shallow roasting tin, drizzle with the oil and season with salt and pepper. If you're adding additional veg or herbs, such as sliced red onions, garlic cloves and thyme, tip these in as well. Toss everything together to coat in the oil, then roast for 20 mins. Toss again to ensure the potatoes cook evenly, and roast for another 15-20 mins until the potatoes are lightly browned on the outside and tender when pierced with a fork or knife.
