Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat the sweet potatoes evenly with the spice mixture.

  3. Spread the seasoned sweet potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

  4. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.

  5. Once the sweet potatoes are cooked through, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.

  6. Transfer the roasted sweet potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro.

  7. Serve hot as a flavorful side dish or enjoy as a snack.
