Ingredients
- 2.5 lbs sweet potatoes peeled and chopped into 1.5 to 2 inch chunks
- 2 Tbsp avocado oil
- Sea salt to taste
Garlic Butter Hot Honey:
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 large cloves garlic minced
- 2 Tbsp honey
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Peel the sweet potatoes and chop them into 1.5 to 2-inch chunks. Transfer the chunks of sweet potato to a large rimmed baking dish and drizzle with avocado oil and sprinkle to taste with sea salt. Toss everything together until the potatoes are coated with oil and spread them into a single layer to avoid overlapping.
- Roast potatoes in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown and fork tender, shaking the baking tray halfway through baking.
- While the potatoes are roasting, heat the butter over medium heat in a small skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic, and sauté, stirring occasionally, until garlic is fragrant, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove the garlic butter from the heat and stir in the honey. Set aside until ready to use.
- Once the potatoes have finished roasting, transfer them to a serving dish and drizzle them with the hot honey mixture. Toss everything well, season to taste with more sea salt, and serve immediately. I love serving them alongside roast chicken, crispy salmon, pork chops, steak, etc.!
Notes
Toss in some chopped nuts, dried cranberries, feta cheese, or parmesan cheese for an extra twist!
