This recipe has become a regular for our family. I’ve actually doubled or tripled the spices and pulled out what I need each time. I’ve been making them in my air fryer. Yum!

The trick is to find them longer and thinner. At least that’s my experience. It helps to use a huge knife that is good and sharp also.

I’ve made this a thousand times. It’s a wonderful recipe. I make a combo of the 2 recipes. I use coconut oil, brown sugar and then all the rest of the savory ingredients. Chefs 💋

I’ve made these about 20x already! Absolutely love the seasoned potatoes. After my sheet pan has cooled I pop it into my freezer and let the potatoes freeze. Couple of hours later I slide them off the parchment paper into a freezer bag and whenever I want some I just scoop out a cup and zap in the microwave. All winter long!

Honestly the best roasted sweet potato recipe I’ve ever found! These are delicious as a side for dinner, but my favorite thing is using them in vegetarian breakfast burritos. These potatoes, scrambled eggs, sautéed peppers & onions, and some guac all rolled up on a whole wheat tortilla? Amazing! Thank you so much for posting this recipe!

Cut this recipe in half for two people but after tasting it, think I should have made the whole batch. We thought it was very tasty & loved the texture of the sweet potato with the toasted edges. The few leftover pieces were even good after they cooled and even would like them as a snack.

I made a few changes and everyone loved it. I did use smoked parka as suggested. After the potatoes had roasted and were about to come out I melted some butter in a cast iron pan on the stovetop and threw in some sliced onions, after 10 minutes I transferred the potatoes to the skillet and finished browning them up.

OhhhhhhMyyyyGahhhhh These were amazing ! Hubs wanted the sweet version and they absolutely did not disappoint!!! I just have to figure out how to get them more crispy without burning them. I did the stirring every 10 mins for 30 and they were fine until that last 10 that they burnt a tad on the bottom so I guess I'll change it to stir every 5 mins for the last 10 mins and add 5 mins till I find my jam.

I never leave reviews on recipes, but I had to rave about these. I usually just put salt and pepper and maybe some rosemary on mine, and I’ve always left the skins on. I was dubious about peeling, but it made the texture perfect, and the seasoning was a nice change. My new go-to treat while I’m dieting and avoiding processed sugars. I didn’t have any paprika, but I added ginger, and they were delish!

Yes, the recipe title should be renamed to say “Yams ” not sweet potatoes. Red Garnets and Jewels are types of Yams. These are different than sweet potatoes. Depending on what people purchased, their cook times and choice of seasonings may yield a different result. Thank you for offering different ways to prepare for people who may not like sweet or savory.

This is what I do and it works wonders! After peeling I take my very sharp chef’s knife and if I want to cube them, I’ll put a small slit on top to the size cube I want (generally 3 slits) and then I call my husband into the kitchen to finish the rest! I could work with them much easier when they’re in planks.

I received sweet potatoes in my CSA box last week, but have never made sweet potatoes before. I’ve always had an aversion to them because of the traditional Thanksgiving version with the marshmallows on top (yuck!). Tonight I found this recipe and made the savory version using smoked paprika as described in your note – and WOW! It was delicious!! I’ll definitely putting this recipe in my regular rotation.

Do you use a rimmed cookie sheet? I haven’t had a problem flipping with a spatula before! I do use a wide and large spatula which helps!

By: Rosalie

Rosalie — Wed, 07 Apr 2021 22:14:07 +0000

Would you have any advice on how to flip them efficiently? If I use a spatula the potatoes go everywhere and flipping them individually leaves them out of the oven too long!

Great recipe! A couple of things I did which made it easier for me:
Tossed sweet potato cubes with seasonings and olive oil in a bowl.
Lined baking sheet with foil and lightly oiled it before adding tossed potatoes.
Used Convection Bake feature on my oven, started to flip potatoes at 12 minutes and found that they were roasting evenly on all sides, so left them alone, and they turned out great!

Thanks! I’d never seasoned my sweet potatoes with more than salt and garlic. What a yummy idea! And the touch of brown sugar to make them caramelize more without being offensively sweet. I appreciate these! I made them for a family who just brought their lovely mother home on palliative care, along with fresh dinner rolls made soft with squash in the dough, and barbecue.

I’d recommend trying these baked sweet potatoes instead 🙂 2 hours and you’d end up with burnt sweet potatoes; you can certainly bake them a bit longer but too much longer and they will likely become mushy or burnt.

By: Robb

Robb — Mon, 21 Dec 2020 20:15:38 +0000

I haven’t tried these, but am intrigued with the ingredients; (and) as a novice cook would like to know:
If I simply took a few, WHOLE (orange skinned), SKIN ON medium size sweet potatoes that are CUT IN HALF lengthwise and adorned with the same herbs, spices, etc that were mentioned applied on sliced half tops, at what TEMP, and approximately how long would the suggested cooking time be?
Would this method produce the deliciously deep roasted flavor I hope to achieve?
Does roasting longer, say double to 2 hr. (@ 400), would that intensify the tenderness/flavor factor, or would that be an overkill, and dry the potato out?
Thank you in advance for any insight

To cut sweet potatoes you need a thin bladed chefs knife such as Mac brand. Traditional chefs knifes with thick blades make slicing and chopping of sweet potatoes, carrots, squash etc to difficult and somewhat dangerous.

The seasoning blend you used was delish! I also have a great life hack for you…having to turn potatoes is a pain in the butt for me so I put a cooling rack (like you cool cake layers or cookies on) with a smaller grate pattern on a cookie sheet and bake them. This prevents me from having to turn them and gives me a crispier texture!

If you cut a lengthwise thin slice off the long side you create a flat surface. Flip the potato so it rests on your newly cut side and now you can steadily slice your sweet potatoes into the wife coins.

i made the plain version and the sweet potatoes were sooo delicious. i left them in rounds and decided not to cube them. this method, plus a little extra brown sugar resulted in potatoes that were not roasted, but instead were super soft and caramelized. i also left them in the oven for an extra 10 – 15 minutes.

This recipe was delicious! I had never made sweet potatoes before, but I decided to try these since we love every spice in this recipe. I doubled the recipe since I had 4 lbs. of potatoes. The next time I will not double the cumin…it was too strong a flavor for us. I decided to put the potatoes in a bowl and then toss with the oil first and the spices next. I didn’t want to lose any oil or spices by tossing on the baking sheet and they were coated just perfectly. I am certainly going to pass this recipe on to my coworkers!!!

I also added a little extra salt, paprika, and garlic right at the start, the flavor is savory due to the spices, yet sweet still from the sweet potatoes. 🙂 happy cooking y’all!

Both are delicious; just depends the mood we’re in 🙂 I do think the savory version is made more. If you don’t have coconut oil, you can use olive oil instead for a slightly different flavor

Can I substitute coconut oil for something else? I don’t usually have that in my pantry. Also which variation do you prefer best?

WOWSA! SO…..I combined BOTH recipes (omitted the coconut oil, just used the olive oil), threw in a heaping 1/2 tsp. of cinnamon as well as the brown sugar after closely following the savory recipe. This was WOW-GOOD! Thank you!

I’d calibrate your oven for next time (https://www.sears.com/articles/appliances/ranges/how-to-calibrate-your-oven-temperature.html) or reduce the temperature by 25 degrees. Sorry to hear they burned!

David T — Thu, 28 Nov 2019 23:35:17 +0000

425 was too hot, at least by my oven’s thermostat. Most of them burned pretty badly . We threw away the worst ones, but they all have a burned flavor. Any guidance on how to watch them to know if it is too hot?

I think these are best made fresh. If you do make them ahead of time, I’d par-bake them (20ish minutes), store them in the fridge, and finish baking them later

That should be fine, the bake time will be longer 🙂

Peeling the sweet potatoes robs them of a great deal of vitamins. The skin of the sweet potato like most vegetables are chock full of good things. If you are cubing the sweets, there won’t be much skin to change the consistency or cooking time in any way. It will just add nutrition. With skins on, this becomes a 5 Star Side.

In reply to katherine.

It’s definitely best fresh out of the oven, but as long as you keep it on the tray after baking it should keep pretty well. The main concern is that if it’s put in a bowl it will start to get soggy! I hope you enjoy!

Can you use a little brown sugar on the spicy recipe for the potatoes?

By: Lilly

Could I do two pans at once or would that create too much steam in the oven? I need to make for a small crowd.

DELICIOUS! I made this for my family of 4 last week and am making it again tonight. 2 of us love sweet potatoes, the other 2 aren’t huge fans but we all gobbled it up nonetheless! I did use 1/4 tsp of cayenne to give it a nice kick. Highly recommend!

In reply to chelseamessyapron.

I do the exact opposite actually. Thanks to the mafia, Italian olive oils are much more likely to be fake than olive oil from Spain or California.

But don’t take my word for it, just do a google search. There’s plenty of info out there.

btw: loved the recipe!

I tried both of your recipes for the sweet potatoes. I used up the rest of my homegrown sweet potatoes from last year. They usually last a year until the new crop comes in. I like the seasoned the best. The sweet is good but they burn to easy even though i turned them every 10 minutes. I even turned down the oven. Thanks for the recipes.

Hey Kristen! So sorry for my slow response; your comment ended up in spam for some reason 🙁 When buying olive oil, I try to get one from Italy! The label on the oil will say “Made in Italy.” A lot of products are “Italian-sounding,” or “Italian-looking” but aren’t really made in Italy unless it actually says on the bottle. I’ve yet to be disappointed with a real Italian olive oil 🙂 Here’s an article too that may help: https://www.myrecipes.com/extracrispy/best-worst-olive-oil-taste-test
