Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat for easy cleanup.
  2. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into even-sized cubes, about 1 inch in size. Uniform pieces ensure even cooking.

Step 2: Mix the Seasoning

  1. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, melted butter, and honey. Stir well to create a smooth base for the seasoning.
  2. Add the chili powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the spices are fully incorporated.

Step 3: Coat the Potatoes

  1. Place the sweet potato cubes in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Pour the spice mixture over the potatoes and toss until each piece is evenly coated. Using your hands or a large spoon ensures thorough coating.

Step 4: Roast the Potatoes

  1. Spread the coated sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to allow proper caramelization.
  2. Roast in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through for even cooking. The potatoes should be golden and crispy on the edges, with a tender interior.
