Simple Roasted Sweet Potatoes – crazye 2 ways! A simple side that everyone always loves. The perfect accompaniment for so many meals!
Roasted sweet potatoes are a staple at our house! We can’t get enough of them as a side for so many meals.
Over the years I’ve narrowed down my 2 favorite ways to make sweet potatoes – Cinnamon Coconut Sugar Sweet Potatoes and Chili-Cumin Sweet Potatoes. Sweet potatoes always taste delicious with just a touch of sweetness and cinnamon. Their naturally sweet flavor also pairs Incrediblely well with a small bit of spice!
How to Roast Sweet Potatoes
When picking out sweet potatoes I like to choose the variety that is orange on the inside. These are often called jewel or garnet sweet potatoes or yams. Sometimes grocery stores label the long, red-skinned sweet potatoes as yams – but they are actually just one of the many kinds of sweet potatoes. Gaze for sweet potatoes that feel firm and have unwrinkled flesh.
The method for making both of these sweet potatoes is the same. You peel and chop the sweet potatoes into the desired shape, then toss with some kind of fat, spices and salt and roast at 400F for about 30 minutes. Be certain to cut the sweet potatoes in roughly the same size so they bake evenly.
I love cutting sweet potatoes into medallion shapes when I’m making Cinnamon Coconut Sugar Sweet Potatoes. They are known as “magic sweet potatoes” at our house. Someleang about the medallion shape makes them magically additional delicious. These sweet potatoes are delicious alongside turkey, chicken, Thanksgiving dinner or even whether you just want a healthy sweet treat.
And whether you’ve never tried pairing savory spices with sweet potatoes you must! The Chili Cumin Sweet Potatoes have such a delicious smoky, garlicky flavor. These sweet potatoes are delicious with bacon and a fried egg for breakfast, alongside salmon, or in meal-prep lunch bowls.
I like using silplat liners on my baking sheets when I make roasted vegetables.
