 Sweet & Spicy Roasted Sweet Potatoes

Woman’s Day Magazine

I loved these! But I only used 2 sweet potatoes, and just guessed at the appropriate amount of each ingredient. I baked them 30 mins. and they were delicious!

 Recipe Ingredients

·         1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

·         2 Tbsp olive oil

·         1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

·         Pinch cayenne

·         Kosher salt and pepper

·         4 lb small sweet potatoes (about 10), cut into 3/4-in.-thick wedges

·         1/2 cup grated Parmesan (2 oz)

Recipe Preparation

1.      Heat oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, combine the sugar, oil, cinnamon, cayenne, 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper.

2.      Add the sweet potatoes, sprinkle with 1/4 cup Parmesan and toss to coat. Divide the potatoes between 2 large rimmed baking sheets and arrange in an even layer. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and roast, rotating the pans halfway through cooking until deep golden brown and tender, 50 to 60 minutes.
