Roasted Sweet Potatoes
These simple yet flavorful roasted yams are the perfect balance of natural sweetness, caramelization, and a hint of sea salt. Roasting brings out their deep, rich flavors while keeping the inside tender and creamy. Coated in nourishing coconut oil, they become golden and slightly crisp on the edges, making them a versatile side dish that pairs well with just about anything!
Chef’s Tip
Ingredients
- Sweet Potatoes – as many as you want
- Coconut oil
- Sea salt
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Yams: Peel off the skin and cut into small triangles, about 1 inch wide and ½ cm thick.
- Coat with Oil & Seasoning: Toss the yam pieces with coconut oil and a sprinkle of sea salt. If the coconut oil is solid, melt it in a pan before drizzling over the yams.
- Roast to Perfection: Spread the yams on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through. Check at the 20-minute mark for doneness.
- Cool & Enjoy: Once the yams are golden and tender, let them cool slightly before serving.
Chef’s Tip
For extra depth, try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or smoked paprika before roasting. Want even crispier edges? Roast at 400°F for the last 5 minutes!
