Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp raw honey
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 0.5 tsp sea salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Tip: Parchment prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier
  2. In a large bowl, toss cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil until evenly coated. Tip: Cut potatoes into uniform 1-inch pieces for even cooking
  3. Spread potatoes in a single layer on prepared baking sheet, leaving space between pieces. Tip: Crowding causes steaming instead of roasting
  4. Roast for 20 minutes, then remove from oven and drizzle with honey. Sprinkle with rosemary, salt, and pepper. Tip: Adding honey halfway prevents burning
  5. Return to oven and roast 15-20 more minutes until caramelized and fork-tender. Tip: Watch closely during last 5 minutes to prevent over-browning
  6. Let cool 5 minutes before serving to allow glaze to set slightly.
