Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes cut into large wedges (~ 4 cups chopped potatoes)
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Wash your sweet potatoes.
  • Cut your sweet potatoes into wedges.
  • Drizzle wedged sweet potatoes with olive oil and then mix in spices.
  • On a baking sheet, spread out sweet potatoes evenly with no overlap. The more space between the potatoes the better.
  • Bake at 425 F on the top shelf for 25- 30 minutes, stirring halfway, until golden and crispy on the outside. Check potatoes with a fork to make sure they are tender.
  • Enjoy by themselves or as a side to a buddha bowl or another dish.

Notes

Storage: Store these sweet potatoes in a glass container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in the oven at 400F for 8-10 minutes or in the microwave for 45-60 seconds.
Tips:
    • Roast your sweet potatoes on the top shelf as it will apply the highest direct heat to the potatoes and help them get crispier.
    • Cooking time can vary based on the strength of your oven. Most potatoes are fully roasted between 25-30 minutes but check yours potatoes with a fork to make sure they are fully cooked through. If your potatoes are not as crispy as you want, broil on high for 5 minutes (watch carefully!) 
    • The larger the wedges, the longer it takes for your potatoes to cook. You can cut these potatoes into cubes if you prefer. 
Make these sweet potatoes for a full meal like the Moroccan Sweet Potato Nourish Bowl.
