Roasted Sweet Potato Cubes
Description
This recipe calls for cubed sweet potatoes tossed lightly with a mixture of melted butter, honey, salt, and a pinch of black pepper before being spread in a single layer and baked. Baking at 375°F for about 35 minutes softens the potatoes fully while the honey and butter form a subtle glaze that enhances natural sweetness and encourages light caramelization. The seasoning is mild, letting the sweet potatoes’ flavor stand out but balanced with salt and pepper. The finished roasted cubes offer a tender, lightly crisp texture and a sweet-savory profile.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds sweet potato cubed
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a 9x13 baking pan by lightly spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.
- Arrange the cubed sweet potatoes in a single layer within the prepared pan.
- Place a small saucepan over medium heat. Into this, add the butter and allow it to melt.
- Once the butter has melted, incorporate the honey, salt, and pepper, stirring until combined.
- Drizzle the melted butter mixture evenly over the arranged potatoes.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through. Note that the actual baking time may vary depending on the size of your potato cubes.
