Recipe: Roasted Brown Sugar Sweet Potatoes

Roasted Brown Sugar Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

1/4 cup vegetable oil
2-3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into cubes
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons butter
Dash of salt and pepper depending on taste

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Pour the oil into a 9×13 inch baking dish, and place in the oven until hot, about 5 minutes.
Add potatoes to the oiled dish, and bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven, turning after 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and pepper.
After the 20 minutes is up, remove the potatoes from the oven, and mix in the brown sugar mixture.
Stir to coat. Return to the oven, and roast for another 10 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and golden brown. Stir potatoes to brown evenly.

I've never tried sweet potato at all. This recipe sounds pretty good. And, very easy to make.

I really like my sweet potatoes with brown sugar and a thickened syrup. Sometime you can add a little bit of chopped apples to them to or if you like topped with marshmellows

I love Sweet Potatoes! I would just add Marshmallows to the Recipe to make it just the way that I like it.

Thanks for the Post and the Recipe.

Mmm ... these look seriously yummy. I don't use butter but I was thinking that I could just eliminate it or even replace the oil, butter & brown sugar with maple syrup. Do you think that would work? Thanks for sharing ... the pictures are making me drool!

  Syrup would probably work!
