Delicious Rosemary Roasted Sweet Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 lbs sweet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • 2 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt (to taste)
  • 1 tsp black pepper (freshly ground)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    A hot oven helps achieve crispy edges.
  2. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    In a large bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

    Make sure the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.
  3. Spread on Baking Sheet

    Spread the sweet potato mixture in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    Avoid overcrowding the pan for better roasting.
  4. Roast

    Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through until tender and caramelized.

    Check for doneness with a fork; they should be easily pierced.
  5. Serve

    Remove from the oven, drizzle with lemon juice if using, and serve warm.

    Great as a side or main dish.
