Ingredients
  

4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup honey

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (optional)

Freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.

      Prepare Honey Butter Mixture: In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, honey, cinnamon, nutmeg, and rosemary (if using) until well combined.

        Combine Ingredients: Pour the honey butter mixture over the sweet potatoes. Gently toss to ensure all pieces are well-coated with the mixture.

          Spread on Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the sweet potato cubes in a single layer on the sheet, ensuring they have space between them for even roasting.

            Roasting: Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized. Halfway through, give them a gentle toss to promote even roasting.

              Finishing Touch: Once done, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. For an added touch, you can drizzle a little extra honey over the top before serving.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve warm as a delightful side dish or a healthy snack. These honey butter roasted sweet potatoes pair beautifully with savory proteins or can be enjoyed on their own!
