Caramelized Sweet Potatoes (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Main
01 -
2 tbsp avocado oil or extra-virgin olive oil
02 -
2 lbs yams (like Jewel or Red Garnet sweet potatoes)
03 -
1 tbsp pure maple syrup (if you'd like it sweeter)
04 -
½ tsp chili powder
05 -
¾ tsp kosher or sea salt OR ½ tsp regular table salt
06 -
¼ tsp black pepper
07 -
½ tsp cinnamon
08 -
½ tsp garlic powder
09 -
½ tsp paprika
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 425°F. Put parchment paper on a roomy 15x21 baking tray, or prep two smaller ones.
02 -
Peel the skin off. If they wobble, slice a thin piece off the bottom so they're steady. Cut into ½-inch circles, then into cubes.
03 -
Place cubes on a baking tray. Toss well with your oil, spices, and optional maple syrup.
04 -
Lay cubes flat on the tray, with space between them so they don’t stick.
05 -
Pop them in the oven and roast for 25-35 minutes at 425°F. Shuffle them around roughly halfway through (about 15 minutes).
# Notes:
01 -
Adding maple syrup is up to you.
